Designs for every conceivable holiday, from New Year's to Christmas and almost everything in between. Instructions and designs to customize for special events.

I really liked Jo Verso's Picture it in cross stitch , as it gave clear instructions and allowed the reader to design their own charts. I remember borrowing the book from the library when I was just starting out (about 1996/7) and using many sheets of graph paper. Mind you, I think only one stitched design came out of it, but it allowed me to realized I could do anything I wanted.

As for this book, however...meh.
