So many cute projects

Love the patterns. Clear easy to follow instructions. Book was in perfect condition. Thanks.

Delightful and Different

This 1998 book is as contemporary today as when it was written. This book is chock full of designs, color and examples of unusual ways to add stitches and accent the fabric you choose to work on. It is a very good follow up to her, "The New Cross Stitcher's Bible." I enjoy the variety of motifs and explanations of different stitching techniques that complement a cross-stitch piece. So far, I haven't attempted Hardinger or other advanced techniques and think I would prefer to see them demonstrated before using them on a piece I am working. But, these designs are so thoughtfully worked out that even without using other stitches any piece would be lovely in cross-stitch alone. I find her explaination of fabric choices helpful and as always, appreciate the stitch guide and other information in the back of the book. Her charts are large, easily read, in color and symbol codes. Large pictures accompany each piece and stitch details are photographed when needed. There are a great variety of projects from Blanket Panels to unique Seasonal Florals, Embellished Pictures, Band Samplers and a Space Dyed Spot Motif Sampler in lively colors. Her Christmas Advent Calander features several lovely motifs which can be used as cards or ornaments if you wish. A special treat for me was the Sea Breezes Band Sampler. It's a happy and fun piece and I think it will be my next project.

Cross Stitch Patterns

Once again Jane Greenoff has given us another wonderful resource. So many creative ideas and ways to make your cross stitch projects truly special. Good directions and pictures with clear color graphs make this a delight to use. Well worth the money.

When I have time to stitch...this is one book I'll be using. Maybe not everything works for me, but it builds nicely from the Cross Stitchers Bible. Very nice projects and motifs but I haven't made anything from here yet. They do seem a little overwhelming for someone who doesn't stitch all the time, but the book itself is very nicely put together and provides detailed instructions and hints & tips. In certain circles, Jane Greenhoff is considered common, but for an intermediate beginner to intermediate stitcher the projects seem well prepared and thought out. I also have her stitch software, which is ok.
