Just an advice
Hi there
In 2004 I published a book on traditional embroideries inspired by the Taj Mahal; 6000 have been printed, but only with French explanations. As I will move soon to Virginia, I was wondering if it would worth to ask American Publishers to publish an English version, according to the American culture and strong interests in needlework. My work, including some examples from the book I mentioned, can be seen on my website. I will be more than happy to read your comments and advices. Framboise www.framboise-creation.com |

The embroidery is gorgeous. I'd say go for it. The Embroider's Guild
of America headquarters in Louisville, KY may be able to help you if you run into snags.

I think it would be well worth it to have an English version of your Souvenirs brodés du Taj Mahal. If the French version is selling well on Amazon and wherever else you have it, then surely the English version would, too. You should consider approaching publishers in the US who already handle similar books, citing your sales results with the French version. I am sure it would be accepted. Deb |
