5.0 out of 5 stars
Beautiful and Useful!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Borders & Motifs in Cross Stitch (Paperback)
Gail Bussi's designs are classic and elegant as well as delicately beautiful. This book is full of her signature borders and small motifs. It's worth the cover price for her alphabet alone.

This review is from: Borders & Motifs in Cross Stitch (Paperback)
I was looking for some small, simple, appealing designs to cross stitch on some baby booties & this book has them. Here are the project themes and motifs:A Touch of Country (sheep, cottages, ducks, trees) , Victorian Florals (roses, a bow), The New Arrival (teddy bears, rocking horse, pull duck toy, baby carriage), Special Occasion Borders (birthday cakes, balloons, rosebuds, pumpkins, ghosts, christmas trees, easter baskets, chicks), Floral Alphabet, A Special Day (simple wedding sampler), A Victorian Christmas (candles, sleigh, doorway, wreath), Traditional Borders (vines, roses, chains), Finishing Touches (roses & posies), Antique Bears (teddy bears). It looks like this book was published only in the UK, so it may be hard to find, but it's worth adding to your cross stitch library. Most designs have little or no backstitching and are quite adaptable for small projects or for creating borders. Now if only there were a book of cross stitch alphabets that was this appealing.... |
