Victorian Cross Stitch Samplers by Angela Wainwright

Victorian designs from textiles, porcelain, jewellery, wallpaper and tiles have been recreated in cross stich for this collection of samplers and smaller pieces. Vibrant colours, flower motifs and flowing lines are features of these pieces. Commemorative samplers stitched by young women of the period have directly inspired some of these designs, and other are reinterpretations of the decorative work of the era. Each design is based upon a specific piece of Victoriana which is displayed alongside the finished new work. Each project is photographed and supported by a full-colour chart and detailed instructions. Designs may be followed exactly or used as a source of inspiration, so that this book is suitable for beginners and more experienced stitchers.
