Embroiderers will love the range of projects and ideas in Celtic Cross Stitch Designs. Carol Phillipson has used over 100 traditional Celtic themes, including knots and spirals, plaits and braids, animal and plant forms, artefacts, and lettering to make up a series of delightful household items. Her clear instructions and helpful charts simplify the translation of Celtic designs into cross stich patterns that can be worked up into pieces to be proud of.
Carol's celebration of the rich colours and textures of the ancient Celts, revealed in the many charts and colour photographs throughout the book, will encourage and inspire you to produce your own combinations of motifs and patterns. She has selected projects that will appeal to experienced embroiderers and those new to the crafts.
These include : cards - coasters and paperweights - sewing accessories - bell pulls - desk set - towels with border trim - cushions - pictures, including a classic illuminated Celtic Alphabet - heirloom rug - footstool - tableware
