The stitches are accompanied by 30 beautiful projects to complete, enabling newcomers to the craft to become practised at the stitches as they progress through the book: Stools; Cushions; Chests; Samplers; Wall hangings; Pictures; Bed covers; Cot cover; Hall runners; Carpets; Firescreens; and Bell-pulls.| SKU | Unavailable |
