I have enjoyed the deigns in this book. They are of a medium skill level, so I wouldn't gift this or recommend it for a beginner, but it is a great book for a cat lover.
My parents got this for me years ago when I did cross stitch as a kid. It was beyond my skill level at the time so I forgot about it. Now, I don't find the designs interesting enough to do them instead of other projects I'm more invested in. A couple of the designs that are all in one color are quite nice.
