Victorian Cross Stitch

Author Jan Greenoff presents a variety of cross stitch projects, all inspired by Victorian motifs. They range from an alphabet sampler to a pop-up Christmas card, and from a garden diary cover to a doorplate, and many are finished off with different techniques such as hemstitch and decorative four-sided stitch. There are step-by-step instructions and colour charts, advice on materials and equipment, and colour photographs of the finished items.
