2 comments about Complete Book of Hardanger.
- Mrs. Geldens has presented us with as nearly complete a book as I've seen. There are introductory directions for novice stitchers and many uncommon stitches for the advanced Hardanger needleworker. Included are clear and precise color pictures, line graphs and written directions for the stitches. Especially appealing are the different size Kloster configurations for the stitches, from small to large a veritable treasure trove for the stitcher who designs his or her own work. And for those who don't design, 25 projects for different levels of ambition are included!
- When I first looked at the book I did not have a idea of the treasuring content it had. I found many stitches I had never seen before and complete diagrams to follow, and the projects are beautifully worked. I do not get used, however, to hand-drawn diagrams, maybe because it is not the usual way to present them in embroidery books; nevertheless, they are easy to follow, as well as the instructions for the projects the author included. My mother says it is a surprising jewel!

1 comments about Traditional Designs in Hardanger Embroidery.
- Open this book and enter a world where needlecraft is an artform. Little imagination is required to envoke grandma's dining room or parlor, complete with doilies on every table. Look in her workbasket and you might find this book, full of pictures and suggestions on how to use the designs. A warning to novices, this is not a how-to get started; this is for the experienced needlewoman.
