## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    Great
  

*by D***H on Reviewed in the United States on February 6, 2023*

The book is great quality, soft bound and colors look amazing. It's not an extensive "how to" embroider but it's great as a beginner's reference. There are some projects that she teaches that are simple, images are helpful.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    Very Comprehensive
  

*by E***T on Reviewed in the United States on October 7, 2022*

The Chinese (and all of Asia) have a long tradition of embroidery and this book looks at the many facets of Chinese embroidery. There are some beautiful photos and a good range projects at all levels. Ironically though, a lot of it looked like very familiar to "Western" embroidery techniques. It makes me realize how much cross pollination happens without our awareness of it. A good lesson in humility.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    Beautiful reading
  

*by K***A on Reviewed in the United States on February 14, 2019*

As far as the projects go in the book, I think maybe only a few are approachable unless you are an expert. I would not consider this a how to bookOtherwise the history of Chinese embroidery is fascinating and I really enjoyed reading about the background of the different dynasties. Some people have reviewed saying that the author writes in confusing English but this really isn't the case--the writing is beautiful and high level, its been translated from Mandarin perhaps which is very formal and perhaps this is strange for readers.Overall I am glad I have it in my library.
