Synopsis

With designs that range from the modernist Yellow Birds to the Celtic-inspired Mythical Bird, and from traditional samplers to a jewel-like panel based on medieval stained glass, there are styles and subjects to suit every taste. And because these projects are small scale, they are perfect for trying out new techniques. Most of the charted designs are worked as framed pictures and, because presentation of these exquisite miniatures is so important, great attention is paid to finishing and framing. All the designs are extremely versatile and there are ideas for adapting each project into a range of delightful gifts, including cards, pin cushions, pot lids, wall hangings, and bed linen borders.
