Elian McCreadys Needlepoint

Every once in a while a needlepoint book catches my eye and inspires me to include it in my Bargello needlepoint library. Although Elian McCreadys Needlepoint is not about Bargello, it’s a definite must have for budding needle artists and seasoned stitchers who wish to “round out” their libraries.

This needlepoint book is a glorious collection of artist and embroiderer Elian McCready’s best work to date. McCready is known for her best-selling needlepoint design work for Ehrman Tapestry, and this book includes work that has previously only been available in kit form, plus six new creations.

The projects are worked in tent stitch and long stitch, and superb colour charts and photographs make the instructions easy to follow. Materials for each project are listed and there is advice on stitching and finishing.
