I love to cross stitch, but sometimes i get sick of all the pastel florals and items for babies. This book is amazing! Beautiful vivid colors look great on regular white fabrics, but pop even more when stitched on black. There are projects of every size, so whether you're looking for something fairly ambitious or something to stitch in an afternoon, this book has something for you. Probably my favorite cross stitch book yet!

I bought this book blind without having a chance to look through it first, and I'm so glad I took a chance on it. If you love to stitch flowers, this is the book for you. There's everything from simple border designs to elaborate pictures, with many suggestions for how to use the designs. The charts are a good size and easy to read. I haven't seen a better collection of floral designs for cross stitch.

I've ordered it so that I can kill some time and at the same time produce something nice. The book is great with beautiful pictures. But, I have to warn you, it's a bit difficult and it will take a quite a bit of time to complete. The book itself is really nice with great illustrations.
