Going through a few cross stitch books looking for a new pattern to work on.

Basic premise: Cross stitch patterns for magic creatures.

There is a lot of content in here. If you are a fan of mixing and matching little bits to make your own art, this is a good book for you. There are also some nice larger, complex works if you are more inclined to just follow a pattern. Good stuff.

With my love of mythical creatures, of course, I also love to stitch them. This book has some of the best cross stitch patterns of mythological creatures and beings I've ever come across. It has everything from small motifs to huge, intricate, beautiful wall hangings.
