Cross stitch becomes wonderfully simple when you think of it as drawing and colouring - just with thread instead of crayons, and fabric instead of paper. With that in mind, there's truly no "wrong" way to begin. This joyful collection celebrates that spirit, offering ready-made scenes of families and friends in all kinds of everyday moments. The story behind Stitch People is delightful in itself, inspired by the playful world of LEGO figures and Funko Pop collectibles, where tiny details bring characters to life. That same sense of creativity and colour runs through every project in the book. You'll find clear guidance on materials, tools, and preparation, along with helpful techniques to get you stitching confidently. Patterns range from baby announcements and cosy home scenes to yoga classes, road trips, coffee breaks, and sweet tributes to grandparents like 'We love grandma and grandpa'. There are lovely seasonal designs for winter, spring flowers and vegetable gardens, summer by the pool, and autumn with crunchy leaves, and tips for giving your finished portrait the perfect hoop display. Packed with patterns, step-by-step instructions, photographs, and expert advice on personalising every design, this book helps you create keepsakes to cherish for years. A large softback with 112 pages, filled with colour photos and diagrams.
