Cross stitch lends perfectly to creating shapes in silhouette, and the art of cutting out paper silhouettes provided the inspiration for the projects in Silhouettes In Cross Stitch. Another plus: the projects are all practical, from a usable tea tray and a sewing box to a table runner and a trinket box or greeting cards. Patterns in black and white on full page accompany color photos of finished results, while clear instructions will appeal to cross stitchers seeking different projects.
