My Favorite Cross-Stitch Book!,
By Jaina Solo "jainasolo@aol.com" (Not Telling, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Storybook Favorites in Cross-Stitch (Hardcover)
These designs are adorable, like others have said, but I had to add--this is not just a same ol' Peter Rabbit / Pooh Bear book. As a new mom, I was a bit tired of finding baby designs for the nursery in nothing but Peter and Pooh. Nothing against these characters, mind you, but I wanted something a little . . . different. Well, I've had great success with this book! I had heard of Duck, but really wasn't too familiar with him--but he and his pals are adorable. Ditto for the "Apple Tree Farm" section (which you can do as a sampler or separate designs). Very Britishy, and perfect for an anglophile like me! Made me a big fan of the illustrator (Stephen Cartwright). Also, this book has a section on Miffy! Wow! You don't find that just anywhere. I, too, wish Gillian Souter would do a sequel to this great book! I'd like to see Little Critter, Wild Things, Lilly (of Lilly's Purple Plastic Purse), and some Rosemary Wells characters. One last note. The designs here are very well done--the transfer of an illustration to the cross-stitch format is very smooth, and my completed designs were very much like the actual illustrations! A nice addition is the alphabet patterns in the back for you to personalize your designs. They're a good couple of fonts which I've used repeatedly.

Lots of classic characters in cross stitch.,
By A Customer
This review is from: Storybook Favorites in Cross-Stitch (Hardcover)
A great resource for anyone who stitches for children. With hard to find cross stitch patterns for many beloved characters, such as: classic Pooh, Angelina Ballerina, Madeline, Apple Tree Farm, Spot, and others. Easy to follow charts and beautiful pictures of finished pieces. A must have for any cross stitcher!

Wonderful patterns for the child at heart,
By A Customer
This review is from: Storybook Favorites in Cross-Stitch (Hardcover)
I bought this book especially for the Classic Pooh patterns I couldn't seem to find anywhere. However, every pattern in here is adorable and the ones I completed charm me still every time I look at them. I would recommend this for anyone who enjoys children's patterns, or wants to give an adorable gift to someone.
