Industry Reviews
"Cheryl Fall has created a collection of patterns that you will treasure for a lifetime...You'll want to make every one, I know I do!...There is a complete section devoted to Supplies, Notions and even 'How To' photo tutorials in the back of the book so saying 'I don't know how' is no longer a valid reason as to why you aren't stitching too!!"--Amy Sessions"peppermintmochamama.blogspot.com" (09/24/2014)
"A delightful instructional book for hand embroidery and cross stitch, great for beginners! The book is suitable for adults...and I also found it perfect for handing off to youngsters, to give them a good foundation for stitchery with plenty of starter projects to embroider."--Mary Corbet"needlenthread.com" (08/25/2014)
