What a blessing! I bought this book three times because I always need to share it with someone who loves to stitch for young children. My grandson was so adorable in the vegetables and garden theme rompers. Then, a few years later, God blessed me with my own tenth child..a son we named Jeremiah who looked so precious as a newborn in a soft white cotton layette embroidered with sage green bullion frogs. Your book has been such a wonderful part of my life and as I share it with others, they sew the most lovely memories for the children in thier lives as well.

I love A to Z with Bullions! I got it year before last after taking a class in Brazillian embroidery. I quickly fell in love with the embroidery and when I saw the A to Z with Bullions, I knew it would be a good addition to my needlework library. Little did I know it would turn out to be my best reference. I keep it with me each time I am stitching to refer to. I love the pictures showing how to make each step. My embroidery has expanded beyond the basic roses and floral techniques because of A to Z with Buillions. I love my book as I do other books I've purchased in the A to Z series.

At the time I ordered the \"A~Z of Bullion\'s I really wasn\'t sure, I thought that since I already owned the A~Z of Embroidery Stitches (original publication and the #2) as well as the A~Z of Embroidered Flowers that perhaps I didn\'t need it, all three were wonderful books. However, since I love to do Brazilian Embroidery and have a hard time finding books on the subject, I decided to order it. WOW! This is about my favorite of the A~Z series. The designs are wonderful! So fresh and new and simply delightful, such lively designs. I have used many of the designs over and over for projects of all types. A great book for the beginner; with it\'s complete step by step instructions (complete with great photo\'s of each step) to the seasoned Pro who just wants an excellent reference book. I have since purchased over a dozen of the other A~Z books and now \"anxiously\" await my latest \"A~Z of Sewing\" to be available!! A great Book for all ages and levels!

The designs are so imaginative and inspiring. I can't wait to start. They are all things I feel I have a chance of being successful at, as they instruct so well. Even a person not so good at fancy work like me, should be able to attain a fairly good result. The book is so exciting to look at, as the pictures are breathtaking in their beauty.

This is the first A-Z book I ever owned. I thought that bullion embroidery was so amazing but something I could never do until I read the book and followed the very clear instructions. I now put bullions on most of my smocking work and love making other clothes for my baby and personalising them for her right down to her underwear. This book is great for the absolute beginner right through to inspiration for the advanced stitcher. A must have in your bookcase!!!
