Synopsis

Combining the homey appeal of primitive samplers with a touch of modern flair, Lori Markovic's La-D-Da Designs are always a delight to see, and these six sweet animal designs in cross stitch are no exception. There's a charming white cat stretching her legs, a band of woodland friends on a trek, and a fun silhouette of Noah's Ark. A tiger-striped cat leaps through an orchard, while an elephant trumpets through a stand of trees. And of course, the dogs are out for a run, just for fun! Lori's little animals are so easy to capture in cross stitch, you may end up stitching the whole whimsical menagerie!

About this title

About the Author

In each of her La-D-Da cross stitch pieces, Lori Markovic combines the homey appeal of primitive samplers with a touch of modern flair. She began cross stitching when her children were little and became inspired by vintage samplers. "I wanted to try designing a sampler, because I was thinking a lot about the girls who stitched those Early American pieces. Their lives were all about family, home, and faith--ideals that run through all generations. And that's how I started La-D-Da Designs." Lori and husband Bob live in Wisconsin, where they are happily surrounded by family. Lori likes to garden and bird watch, which no doubt inspires many of the natural elements in her designs. Another inspiration is the strong sense of community she enjoys with fellow cross-stitchers.
