1000 great cross-stitch designs - Maria Kelly

This is a fabulous resource to satisfy the most enthusiastic cross stitcher. Beautifully presented and keenly priced, 1000 motifs are organized into easy-to-access categories, so you can find a cross-stitch design for every occasion, whether it be a special personalized Christmas gift, a Valentine or birthday card, a sampler to celebrate a wedding anniversary, or the birth of a baby. As any cross-stitcher knows, some designers get carried away when it comes to recommending threads, author Maria Kelly never falls into this trap - all her exquisite designs can be created using a palette of 30 colors or fewer. A resource section in the back of the book gives the DMC thread "recipe" for each of the 1000 designs used.
