From Mary Corbet's Needle 'n Thread - June 22, 2018
The RSN Book of Embroidery is an extensive, multi-technique-encompassing reference book that would make a good addition to any needleworker’s bookshelf.
If you’ve wanted the content of the Essential Stitch Guides but were hesitant to collect each individual book, now you can have them all in one more affordable package – and that’s pretty neat!
Beyond a simple stitch dictionary, a technique book can walk you through the basics (and beyond) of a particular embroidery technique. Individual technique books for different types of hand embroidery are fairly common, but imagine having a technique book that covers many of the major genres of hand embroidery all in one spot!

THREADS - Recommended Embroidery Books for Technique and Inspiration Feb 20, 2018

You may have thought to yourself, “I love embroidery and wish I had one book that has everything I could need to know about major techniques.” Look no further than this encyclopedic tome containing 400 pages and more than 2,000 photos and illustrations.
