Hi all, I own the above book, and while I had done embroidery before, had never known of stumpwork before buying this book...it was one of those get ten books for a dollar deals through a book club.

I fell in love with stumpwork, it was very easy to learn from the book, without even tackling an entire project. I tried some of the motifs I liked, practiced some of the stitches, and then using one of the projects as a guide, made my own first design.

Yeah for Stumpwork! This month I plan on travelling to our nearest floss store to purchase silk floss for some projects up my sleeve...never knew what a difference silk floss would make, yum! Kelly/estela _______________________________________________
