A letter from a very kind lady..... “Phillipa, I watched your video several times. I am thrilled with the instruction in both and am eager to start a project. Here’s a review of your video I posted online. I hope you enjoy it. Phillipa Turnbull teaches basic crewel stitches, breaking up each lesson with a brief background on other aspects of crewel such as linen and yarn manufacture. I feel I learned as well from this video as having an expert sit next to me. She speaks clearly and concisely while demonstrating the before, during and after of creating a stitch. My husband sat down and watched it with me making points like how taut she kept the linen. So, even someone not interested in the subject can enjoy this video. This video even features a dramatic arc! Phillipa Turnbull sewed a bedspread for the Queen Mum. The end of the video shows the ceremony where she places the bedspread on the bed.” Lisa DVDPhilippa Turnbull's "An introduction to Crewel Embroidery" is designed not only for newcomers to crewel embroidery, but also for those who want to be able to go back again and again to perfect their technique. Clear instructions - especially helpful if you are struggling with "Long and Short Stitch" Available in both PAL and NTSC formats |
