I'm very excited about finding DuBay's book through her web site limogesantiques.com - her books are wonderful.

And it's amazing how much is covered: seeding, Japanese darning, a variety of stem stitches, buttonholes and variations, the twisted fly, herringbone, cable chain, zigzag coral, Portuguese border, detached loop, and many, many more. It will enhance any embroiderer's stitching repertoire.

Customer Reviews:
Informative yet quite readable.......2000-09-07
To a first-timer in the "eating healthy" arena, I found the book filled with common sense ideas written in such a way that anyone could understand. The concepts were dealt with in short,easy-to-understand modules (chapters). Each module was complete and was built upon the one(s) preceding it. The message was simple from the start: eat right (less fat/more fiber), drink water, exercise. And that message was hammered home throughout the entire 142 pages.
And, for what its worth, I finished reading the book the first time in about two hours and am now reading it for the third time in a week!
