Ruth Schmuff not only teaches, runs a needlepoint shop, and creates and distributes painted canvases, she writes books. Since this is the 21st Century and Ruth is a very modern stitcher, her books come in three flavors: CDs, e-books and regular books. Here is her website in case your local shop doesn't have these in stock right now.

Her latest volume is now appearing in book form. It's not downloadable to iPhones and iPads yet, but I expect that in the future. In this latest blog entry, Ruth tells us a bit about the new version of Backgrounds Volume One.

The physical book versions are expensive because they contain so many stitch diagrams. I use the CDs which are perfect for me, but nothing beats a good browse. However, if you travel a great deal, you might want to explore getting Ruth's books as downloads for your smart phone. Search for Ruth Schmuff at the iTunes store.
