This review is from: Expressions of Love: Woman's Day Prizewinning Cross-Stitch Samplers (Hardcover)

This books holds designs for 33 samplers selected as winners of a "Woman's Day" sampler contest. Each piece is shown in full color, alongside a short story by the designer about the piece and a short biography of the designer.

There are substantial and varying degrees of professionalism in these pieces. Some are great, others are ... not so great. Some are very detailed, others quite simplistic. Some of the color choices are, shall I say, interesting (but I wouldn't want them in my home!) There are enough charts in this book that make it a worthwhile supplemental addition to your stitching library. But if you're looking for your next *must have* book, this is not it.
