Great Resource for Punch Needle
I love how creative the author is in this book. She shows many different ways you can punch needle and how to make difficult to punch fabrics viable. There is a lot of more advanced projects in this book that I am not yet ready to try, being a beginner. In the back of the book, there are a lot of websites for punch needle supplies and patterns. Sadly, about half of the sites no longer exist.

Great all in one. Coil-bound which is a plus. If you're buying this book check twice, my copy has pages 209 to 224 missing replaced with a repeat of pages 193 to 208. The place I bought it contacted the publisher who was not willing/able to replace the missing section. Even with the missing parts, it's a useful reference guide.

Very informative. Loved the history of the Art from the Ukraine, i think. And was shocked to see what Attorney General Robert Kennedy did to save these people and their ways from extinction. Great reference for one interested in Punchneedle embroidery.
