Sandra Arthur's Shapes of Needlepoint is a new book that focuses on finding stitches to fit certain shapes. As you know, I often choose stitches that mimic the shape that I need to fill. Sandra's book is an organized way to make this happen and has the nice touch of helping you resize a stitch to fit inside the space available. Here's Janet Perry's review of the book.
