I love this book,

This review is from: Cross Stitch Sentiments and Sayings (Cross Stitch (David & Charles)) (Hardcover)
This is a wonderful book. I got it out of my local library and came into Amazon to find out how expensive it is because I intend to buy it. I have never seen this designer before and I'm very pleased with her style. The characters are happy but aren't too cartoonish. The projects that don't have "people" or "bears" in them are elegant.
There are both large and small projects, and projects with and, in the case of some of the small ones, without sayings. I like the alphabets that are used. The charts look clear, and although I haven't yet tried any of them out, I think even the larger projects are relatively easy to do because there are very few half stitches. The half stitches seem to be mainly in the face areas on some, but not all, of the projects. I especially like the baby sampler, good for either a boy or girl, and the elegant wedding sampler.
5.0 out of 5 stars
