All Creatures Stitched and Small

Book excerpt: Combining the homey appeal of primitive samplers with a touch of modern flair, Lori Markovic's La-D-Da Designs are always a delight to see, and these six sweet animal designs in cross stitch are no exception. There's a charming white cat stretching her legs, a band of woodland friends on a trek, and a fun silhouette of Noah's Ark. A tiger-striped cat leaps through an orchard, while an elephant trumpets through a stand of trees. And of course, the dogs are out for a run, just for fun! Lori's little animals are so easy to capture in cross stitch, you may end up stitching the whole whimsical menagerie!
