Picure it in Cross Stitch
This Picture it in Cross Stitch (A David & Charles Craft Book)
is the book that inspired me to take up a needle and hoop and stitch for pleasure, after I had had much of the love of embroidery driven out of me by my tyrannical needlework teacher at school! Jo Verso’s patterns were modern, vibrant, sometimes irreverent and showed me that cross stitch didn’t have to be all twee roses. I lent my original book to a friend and never got it back, but amazingly I found a copy in a local charity shop a short time ago, so quickly snapped it up.
