If you're an ardent Schwalm embroidery enthusiast, then you probably may have already paid a visit to Luzine Happel's Schwalm embroidery website . Luzine Happel is well known in the embroidery world for her work and books on Schwalm Embroidery .You can read the reviews of a couple of her wonderful books, Basic Principles of Schwalm Whitework, and Early Schwalm Whitework, here and here.
Since her books are self published, they are usually not found in online stores and the order had to be placed through mail. But now she has come online with her website http://www.luzine-happel.de/?lang=en .

The News section is where Luzine writes about her current work.You should also check out Luzine's sampler page where you can see the picture of one of her largest samplers with 321 different patterns.And in case you're keen on getting started with Schwalm embroidery , you could place your order at the Shop
That's about the website . Now for the good news...
