Summary: A must for William Morris afficionados
Comment: If you are a needleworker (or thinking of becoming one), favour the richness of tapestry and are looking for William Morris designs to reproduce, then the work of Beth Russell is exactly what you're looking for. She has adapted classic William Morris pieces for tentstitch in Appleton tapestry wools and produced easy-to-follow colour charts for cushions, chair upholstery, and rugs. I have a number of needlework books I purchased for the sake of one or two patterns I couldn't find anywhere else. With this book, I cannot decide which of all the designs to work first.

Summary: For the very experienced
Comment: The projects in this book are excellent to say the least; I have done 3 of them; they take between 400-500 hours, but are simply elegant. The designs are beautifully done by Beth Russell, and they need to be done in Appleton tapestry. I am very glad I bought this and all of her books. They were all purchased through Amazon.com since Barnes & Noble and the other large suppliers do not have them in stock.

Summary: wonderful designs, tricky charts
Comment: The designs in this book are terrific, and very adaptable. The difficulty is in the charts: the colors used in the design keys are different from the colors used in the charts, or the patterns are all outlined and the hand-drawn outlines are not along the graph lines. With patience, you can sort it out - the designs are so wonderful that it's worth the time.
