A wonderful book with a vibrancy that only Africa can offer. Trish Burr has captured the magic of Africa suberbly well. A well detailed book with something for the beginner, as well as for the more advanced stitcher. The charts are well defined, easy to read and just as easy to do. With folklore accompanying the charts, its makes for interesting reading. A book worth buying. Ines African Stitch www.africanstitch.com

I have already reviewed this book, but now having had it for a number of months and worked from it I just think it is a book that every stitcher should have. Exciting colours, easy to follow and great fun to stitch. When are we getting the next one Trish?
The African Cross Stitch Collection
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 20 years ago
This is a must for any cross stitchers bookshelf. The designs are fascinating and Trish has made use of the brilliant sunset shades and vivid colors associated with Africa which come to life before you as you stitch. Most designs have a dominant focal point such as a wildlife object which is framed by ethnic borders which are quite detailed but not repetitious. Every detail is outlined in fine black thread which gives it a dramatic feel and some metallic details are included to add sparkle. What I like most is that the designs can be used for any occassion both male and female, big or small and she has included a set of individual motifs at the back of the book so that you make your own designs. Will be looking out for a follow on to this one........
