By Gail Bussi

Find your cross-stitch bliss in the enchanted garden!

Beloved cross-stitch designer Gail Bussi is back with a new collection of designs inspired by the imagery of a discovered garden full of secret delights. Designs feature favorite flowers such as roses and sunflowers; birds, bees, and butterflies; herbs and tea; the changing seasons and glorious sunshine. The thoughts and meditations in her designs are meant to uplift and bring peace as you stitch them. Gail also includes a few recipes made from fresh garden herbs and flowers. Try her suggestions to make a cup of chamomile tea sweetened with an herb-infused honey while you stitch--a lovely experience for all of your senses!

Each design is created in Gail's signature chalk art style and includes chart, finished photo, a materials list, and full instructions. If you are new to cross-stitch or need a refresher, turn to the introductory section to get started. There are only a few simple techniques to know, and you'll be on your way to creating a garden of delights!
