Mary Corbet Raves About Richly Stitched Landscape Embroidery

Mary Corbet just posted a rave review about Cassandra Dias' new book, Richly Stitched Landscape Embroidery.  Mary says this book is a really good teacher of the technique.  It's done with a lot of colors of DMC cotton floss to add depth and shadows and the end result is magnificent.

The pieces are stitching on a natural color of duck canvas but the technique will work on needlepoint canvas if you switch to a sharp needle such as a beading needle, crewel needle, etc.  That makes this a great book for those who want to stitch clouds, trees or other landscape elements naturalistically.
