Jayne Schofield, cross stitch designer, has produced this beautiful book containing a range of delightful cross stitch patterns, lovingly crafted, to celebrate house, home, love and family. The themes found within this book include baby samplers, garden, house, home sweet home, craft, sewing and wedding. Some of the designs can be easily personalised by adding names and dates using the alphabet charts provided. Jayne's love of colour and design has been lovingly captured within these cross stitch patterns and the simplistic nature of her work makes this an ideal book for both the beginner and the more experienced stitcher. Inspired by Jayne's love of family and home, the cross stitch projects within this book are designed to adorn the house once stitched or to help celebrate those special moments in life.

Each of these twenty beautiful needlepoint designs from Jayne Schofield is accompanied by a full-colour chart, key and general instructions. These fun, quirky designs in bright, contemporary colours are all small, measuring on average approximately 10 x 12.5cm (4 x 5in), though the designs come in a variety of formats and include tall, narrow designs as well as squares. All the designs are worked on 10-hole canvas and there is a broad range of subjects to choose from, including a country cottage, flowers, hearts, a festive reindeer, a hen, owl and some sheep, to name a few. So, whatever the occasion, there is bound to be a design that suits it perfectly. There are general instructions and a simple stitch diagram at the beginning of the book, so even those new to needlepoint will be able to accomplish all of the projects. At the start of the book there is a double-page spread of basic techniques. Jayne uses Anchor threads and provides the code numbers for the colours used; however, any suitable thread such as DMC or Madeira could be used.
