You'll always have a perfect saying for your cross-stitch projects with 555 patterns that will touch your heart as they enhance your work. Celebrate friendship, home and family, love, simple pleasures, spirituality, the holidays, and more, with sentiments such as "It is by believing in roses that one brings them to bloom," "Mother knows best," and "No whining or complaining allowed." Charming motifs range from flowers and stars to animals and athletes. The author lives in Ragland, AL. 128 pages (all in color), 8 1/2 x 11.
I was thrilled with this book! I am an avid cross stitcher, and I am advanced in my skills. Even though I know most of these designs are simple, they are beautiful and heartfelt, not "corny". With the variety of flosses suggested for the patterns, you get a great, creative design without it being so large. This way, you can give beautiful gifts to those you love without a huge output of time. I love it!

What a wonderful, whimsical, nostalgic, delightful book. Of all the cross sticth books there are out there this one certainly tops them all. This book is filled with heartwarming sayings that are appropiate for all occasions like mother's day, father's day, birthdays, friendships, and just about any other occasion you could think about. In other cross stitch books the designs are just averavge, but in this one, they are so beautiful. The only downside is that the book is too crammed. The designs should have been spaced out more to provide a better view of all the crafts. Beginners and veterans of cross stitching would find this book a definite keeper.
