Cross Stitch Castles & Cottages

More about the book

This range of cross-stitch designs is inspired by buildings around the world, from piers to pergolas, lighthouses to windmills and castles to cottages. There are more than 30 projects, with instructions for making a variety of embroidered gifts, including colour charts and colour photographs of the finished designs. The author encourages readers to go beyond the instructions and follow their own ideas. She gives advice on choosing alternative fabrics and stitches, shows how the designs can be adapted and explains how you can incorporate your own home.
