My second book showcases thirty of my dream projects in decorative embroidery, cross-stitch, and crewelwork. It is a collection of designs drawn from the natural world, based on historical motifs, or inspired by so many of my favorite things: the bright garlands of Hungarian peasant dresses, the folksy charm of Ukrainian cross-stitch borders, the earnest beauty of natural wildflowers and woodland flora, the sophistication of vintage monograms, the sweet simplicity of early American motifs, the spare modernism of Scandinavian design, even the old-fashioned whimsy of my own modern housewares. This is just all the stuff I truly love, expressed in needle and thread.

The projects are accompanied by photos of finished items, stitch charts and colorways, templates and stitch symbols, and instructions for finishing. At the beginning of each section, I’ll explain the basics, and suggest types of fabrics, kinds of floss, and sizes of needles to use. An illustrated stitch dictionary and general sewing section walks you through every stitch and basic technique used in the book. And a list of resources — from historical references to contemporary needlework shops — will help you find further information and all the supplies you need. Whether you're a beginner just starting out or an accomplished needleworker, this book has something for you.

You can also find this book at Powells.com or Amazon.com or BarnesAndNoble.com or at an independent bookstore in your neighborhood!

Perfect for light/moderate chewers
Size: Extra Small, Color: Blue, Size: Extra Small, Color: Blue
My dog wouldn’t stop biting on the toddlers plastic dinosaur toys, so I got him this because it’s similar to plastic. But not hard enough to where it could damage his gums, also not soft enough to break apart. It’s perfect and he’s very happy with it. My dog is 6 LB toy poodle for reference, I would say this is suitable for small dogs. I saw reviews saying that their dog absolutely destroyed it immediately, but then in the review pictures their dogs were baby bulldogs/german shepards! This isn’t meant for breeds like that, but if you have a smaller dog with smaller teeth then this is ideal.

Is this safe for my dog if she chews off little pieces.
Size: Small/Medium, Color: yellow
My Chihuahua loves this, however I want to know is it safe for my dog to swallow? She chews on it and gets little pieces of it and swallows them.

Dog likes some
Size: Extra Small, Color: Blue
Puppy will chew on this but not favorite. Over time it gets sharp pieces and dog could ingest. Not sure how safe for a small dog. Affordable but not long lasting.
