Great Refresher Book!
Even though I've been a Cross Stitcher for a quite a while, I found this book a nice tool for techiniques I'd forgotten about. I has step by step instructions for Hardanger stitching & for making your own patterns with or without a grid. Blackwork step by step, picture frames and wall hangings. I intend to use it as a reference or a refresher for techniques I haven't used in a while. Great little book!!!Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
