Escape from reality with 25 imaginative cross-stitch patterns. In this charming collection, Iris Kleinbussink, the pattern designer behind NeedleLot Designs, shares her eye-catching interpretations of classic fantasy along with mythology and folklore from around the world. Adorn your library with an Enchanting Unicorn, then mark your page with the Gothic Lancet Window bookmark. Protect your hoard with a Dragon of the Old World, or cast a spell with the Witch’s Cat.
