Alphabets Galore

I bought this book to find a more traditional font than the rather modern one used for the heading on a somewhat old-fashioned cross stitch pattern.I had to tinker with some of the letters, as the design constrained the letter height, but the end product was good.Plusses: Wide variety of fonts, clear patternsMinuses: No link indicated between lower case fonts and capitals; limited number of stitched letters illustrated; no classification of letters by height (number of stitches high)

The range of alphabets is superb. I already have half a dozen I intend to use for Christmas cards. There are 3 pages of colour illustrations (front and back covers and page 2. The charts are clear, in black and white, and easy to use with keys giving both anchor and DMC numbers. I thoroughly recommend it. It came well packaged,and would fit through letter box. It arrived very quickly.

useful to sew letters

Good selection of alphabets of different sizes. No colour key chart though so have to choose your own as each full alphabet is black and white only.

Excellent book. There are 136 different alphabets from basic line stitch to decorative letters. There are alphabets for male, female and children/babies. If you are a novice there are brief instructions on how to cross-stitch with instructions to also make Lazy Daisy and French Knot stitches for that finishing touch. There are also "occasion" themes such as Christmas and Halloween. Highly recommend.

Great alphabet patterns for cross stitching , easy to follow

Exactly what I needed and a great addition to my bookshelf. I like the variety of styles, sizes, and complexity of fonts. Really good book and worth it to have this on hand.

Fabuloso, práctico y muy completo.

Súper completo.

Da ich viel und gerne sticke und mir eine Auswahl an verschiedenen Alphabeten noch fehlte, war ich gleich begeistert, als ich dieses Buch fand. Die Lieferung ging schnell.Mir gefällt das Buch ganz super. Es sind alle ABC - Möglichkeiten auf dem Vorder- & Rückcover und 1x innen in bunt abgedruckt. Außerdem sind nochmal alle Alphabete auf der Innenseite des Vordercover's (diesmal in schwarz/weiß) abgebildet und auch gleich durchnummeriert. So kann man dann ganz schnell das gewünschte Alphabet im Buch finden, ohne groß suchen zu müssen.Was mir persönlich noch besonders gut gefällt, in diesem Buch sind die Garnfarben von DMC und Anchor angegeben.
