Great Resource for Library
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 15 years ago
This book arrived today and it seems to be a great resource for your library. The only drawback is that there is only one page and the front cover to show how each design will work up. They are festive and there is a wide variety. Also, each page is presented in color chart as well as DMC color floss codes for the page. There is a small introduction to cross stitching.
Great "Quick and Easy" designs!

This book is full of wonderful designs that are a snap to work up. I used scraps of cross stitch fabric and left over floss to make small designs that I sewed into gift bags made from Christmas fabric. There are so many wonderful designs it is hard to pick out a favorite. They also make great package ties and the designs can be grouped on a larger piece of fabric to make a nice wall hanging. This book gets used every year and I still have many more I want to stitch. Sam Hawkins is a talented designer.
Wonderful colored cross stitch charts and more!

Sam Hawkins, well known for his Precious Moments art work, has done it again. A large, colorful book of Christmas and inspirational cross stitch patterns. But there is more. Around each pattern there is an appropriate quotation (with its source) that could be used in a number of ways. Anyone skilled in calligraphy, could use the thoughts to illustrate a greeting card. Another innovation is one floss chart for each page of designs, with 3 or 4 designs to a page. Besides the angels, nativities and Santas, one finds other expressions of Christmas art ranging from the simple to the more complex. A thoroughly delightful book and a valuable resource.
