Book Overview

Cats, dogs, horses, rabbits, budgies, guinea pigs, goldfish, rats and ferrets are just a few of the popular animals featured in this parade of pets in cross stitch. Over 40 popular breeds of dog and cat alone give the stitcher plenty of choice, whether they want a detailed portrait or a nose-to-tail likeness. Additional themed alphabets, fitting sentiments and cute motifs reflect the humorous side of being a cat or dog lover. Other pets are also represented, from the tiniest mice and goldfish to wide-eyed reptiles, mischievous ferrets and familiar farmyard friends. Advice is given on changing thread colour to match your subject, and many chart keys feature alternative colour combinations. Gift and keepsake ideas suggest how to display your prized pet's pictures

Cross Stitch Review

Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 17 years ago

I requested this book because I design cross stitch pictures for my grandchildren and I needed more examples. I found that the book was everything I expected and more. This book has dogs, cats, rabbits, horses, etc but not just one but many different patterns for each. I would definitely recommend this book to anyone else out there that likes to design their own cross stitch patterns.
