Home Sweet Home Cross Stitch - Stylish Samplers and Gifts to Make Every House a Home

David and Charles, Ohio, 2010. Very slight buckle at top of spine, good secondhand copy.

A collection of beautiful quick-to stitch projects that will brighten up every corner of your home. In Home Sweet Home, the traditional cross stitch sampler has been brought up to date with a choice of five picture designs to welcome guests. Three more chapters show how cross stitch patches can be added to a range of easy-sew projects for the home, for family gifts and for Christmas decorations. There are so many ways to help you satisfy your desire to create a handmade keepsake including a simple patchwork quilt, a retro hostess apron, and decorative bunting to name a few. Bright, contemporary fabrics complement the cross stitch motifs, and simple bead, button, applique and embroidery embellishments make the finished pieces even more special.
