I thought there would be actual authentic patterns to cross stitch. Instead there are teddy bear designs with made up very corny verses.

This book is full of designs that cover a variety of the Indian tribes and contains key information as why particular colors were chosen or the significance of a motif. I have several designs in the book started and cannot wait to finish them. Easy to read charts with the colors to help guide along make many of the projects come alive off the page as you are working.

I own this book, and it is the best cross stitch medium for Native American designs that I've seen on the market. The charts are large and easy to read. The finishing instructions are clear and concise. This is a very good publication from start to finish and worthy of a "5-star" rating. Highly recommend!!! A ++++++
