  Carry a floral theme through all your lettering and borders with this exquisite collection of designs. A bright border of red and lilac anemones is eye-catching, as is a selection of stylish Art Noveau-inspired patterns including Mucha poppies and stylized tulips. Pretty spring and summer alphabets feature flowers and butterflies, while an alphabet of topiary trees gives an alternative look. Finally, an A to Z of flowers, from azaleas to zinnias, forms an alphabet irresistable to all garden lovers. This series of cross-stitch chart books brings together the work of your favourite cross stitch designers. Each title in the series contains 10 pages of charted cross stitch designs on one popular subject. Every chart includes an easy-to-use key, and an inspirational colour photograph of each finished piece shows the fantastic results to be achieved. Each chart book also provides handy stitching tips and advice, stitch diagrams, guidance on techniques and materials, and a thread conversion chart to ensure you have all the information required to complete every design featured.
