This review is from: Herb Gardens in Cross Stitch (Paperback)

Most of Elena Thomas cross stitch designs are suited for beninning skill levels, a bay tree topiary is more challenging. All projects have color photos and charts are black and white. The designs range in size, with 3 Assisi charts (background is stitched) that may be made larger by increasing the stitching area. A lavender design is used for a sachet bag and trinket box, and is suited to be used in many projects. Basic skills are explained and a page of suppliers is provided. The designs are simple, attractive, and inspiring for uses in a variety of handcrafted objects. Colors of embroidery cotton are listed in DMC, Anchor and Madeira threads.
