The Garden Hardanger Book

Whether we surround ourselves with the beauty of the garden or with beauty created with needle artistry, our palettes are full and our choices endless. Gardens as well as needlework are full of texture, color, form and dimension. Whether we choose to plant ans antique rosw or a daisy, whether we choose a stitch combination found on an antique sampler or use a recent technique, we share our love of beauty with others who have made those same choices.

This design combines a garden full of colorful cross stitch with over 70 richly textured needlework techniques. The cover and the chart are both oversized. Each step and each stitch are fully illustrated and explained. The full color back and inside front cover picture additional projects using other fabric choices and changes in the size. The 20 page book is spiral bound. This design won the People's Choice award. It was also awarded the "Ginnie" Book award and the "Embroidery" award for excellence in charted needlework.
