Autopsy of the Montenegrin Stitch - Exhumed

US Customers, please be advised:

Starting August 20, 2025 I will be putting a temporary shipping pause on ALL orders to the UNITED STATES.

The US Government will be removing the ‘de minimis’ rule for goods entering the United States  as of August 29, 2025. This means that all goods shipped to the United States may be subject to a 35% tariff.

My products should be exempt from the tariffs under the USMCA free trade agreement. I am exploring how to document and implement shipping my kits and books exempt under USMCA. I hope this can be resolved and that I can resume shipping to my US customers soon.

Please Note: Shipping is included for this item!

This compact coil-bound notebook includes over 100 stitch diagrams to help you work this complicated stitch.

"That is why Amy's little book was FANTASTIC.  At first it is hard to imagine a book that only covers one stitch - but when you realize that as you move from a downward diagonal to a vertical - you just look that up that case in the book and it shows you the stitch progression to do it.  And then as you approach the next transition, you look up that case - and there is it!  Figured out for you.  To be honest - if you like band samplers from the 17th century - it is a MUST in your library.  And yes, it takes 128 pages to diagram out all the conditions you come across.  This version also does the reversible method as well (OMG) so it has been expanded since the first edition that I use all the time."

"Really, when she says "autopsy," she means it. She has taken this complex stitch apart in every possible combination, and put it back together into easy-to-read diagrams . . . if you find yourself in love with historical samplers, you will find this book a handy companion and you'll understand the value of it."
