reviews


it's a done deal then- the first of what may become many
Cross Stitch Fairies
ISBN 0 7153 1946 9
publ : David and Charles
claims 50 patterns but I see some are of the same design with the pattern a mirror image and with a few color changes.
I was kind of disappointed but I think my expectations were too high.

Lots of quick stitches I think and they are flexible. Could be easily adapted to cards.

  • Fairy Alphabet (published in WOCS issue-see pic)
  • Garden Fairies (don't like the sampler but will do the fairies one by one, nice for cards I think)
  • Birthday Fairies (cute)
  • Fairy Princess (COVER picture)
  • Nursey Fairies (may or may not)
  • Fairy Godmother (I do not like at all , too country for my taste)
  • Fairy Seasons (cute)
  • Fairy Silhouettes (nice)


Was it worth it for me, well yes- it was FREE!

I like the price category of this. Free is always a good deal. :P

nice review, Angela :) I am not into fairies that much, but it was an interesting read :) And cool about it being for free, this is just my sort of price ;)
