Mary Corbet has reviewed Betsy Morgan's first book on her website. It's called "Willing Hands," which is the name of Betsy's embroidery company. It's published by Inspirations magazine out of Australia, so you know the illustrations are going to be absolutely beautiful.

Normally I don't talk about embroidery here, but Betsy's a very talented embroiderer and designer and a great teacher. She used to live over the mountain from me so I have seen her work up close and personal. Fabulous! She's wildly talented.
So when Mary says her book, which is all about creating etuis and smalls, is a wonderful guide for finishing, I thought I'd mention it here. Folks are always asking how to learn to do their own finishing. I don't think Betsy's etuis are going to be easy to put together but the little needlebooks and other things that go into the etuis are not difficult.
If you love beautiful embroidery, admire etuis, and you want to learn how they are made, this is a good place to start.
