Victorian Cross Stitch

Inspired by original handpainted charts from Berlin and a lifelong passion for Victoriana, designer/author Jane Greenoff presents a collection of cross-stitch projects - all on a Victorian theme and featuring flowers, lace and beads. The designs are cross stitch with additional finishing techniques such as hemstitch and decorative four-sided stitch, plus a few in tent stitch. Beginners are provided for with step-by-step instructions, colour charts and colour photographs. The author's first book was "Cross Stitch Castles & Cottages".

What a fabulous book!

Great explanations for beginners or those looking to learn new specialty stitches. Beautiful colored finished photos along with many charts to create.

Def going to be purchasing this book for myself.

I had the pleasure of meeting Jane Greenoff a couple years ago in England and visiting her home and studio. What an absolutely kind and brilliant woman. Very happy to have found this treasure at the Library

Going through a few cross stitch books looking for a new pattern to work on.
