Reader's note

Add a touch of sophistication to your bookshelf with this vintage edition of Mary Thomas's Dictionary of Embroidery Stitches 1965. As the title suggests, this is indeed a dictionary of stitches; 305 of them! With an explanation of The Arrangement of the Stiches, Drawn Fabric Stitches, Diagrams with Squared Backgrounds and Uses. Mary Thomas argues- ‘Stitches are the ‘scales and exercises’ of embroidery and a good working knowledge of these is the first essential foundation of the art’. This wonderful edition is illustrated throughout with numerous black line drawings and diagrams. Just one among a bounty of antique, rare and obscure gems on our second hand bookstore!
