Questions & Comments

Does this book come with instructions on how to cross stitch? I used to do it years ago but I need a refresher course.

Yes, it does have a primer area step-by-step, goes over different tools & materials and has patterns & projects.

Thank you for your response. I hope I can win it. I would like to get back into cross stitching. I used to love to make pillow cases for people for presents with their name on it and their favorite design in their favorite color and they seemed to love them. When my daughter who is now 34 was a baby I made a quilt for her and cross stitched a different Disney character on each of the panels and it turned out great but has gotten lost throughout the years. I was thinking of making her a new one to hang on her wall.

yW Best of luck to you. Everything sounds great to me. I used to do the same with embroidery, just not enough time. Now that I'm getting older, I have been doing a little bit. Used to love doing it. Your daughter would love that and cherish it, I'm sure. I may have some more stuff up later to do with cross stitching. Hope to talk to you again. Sharon
