Great book. Instructions are fabulous and the colour and pictures of the book make it a wonderful read. It is a craft I have always wanted to have a go at and the projects marked at different levels make it easy to decide on which to try first!

This is a great book, bringing the old craft of cross stitch back to life. There are so many small projects to get beginners started and the "crochet granny square" cushion is just beautiful. A lovely book, a great present and an inspiration to all of us whether from the original make do and mend generation or the present one.
Listmania!
