Customer Reviews

Great!!!

If you're a cat person and loves to CS this one is a must have.

Beautiful projects

This book is filled with wonderful projects, mostly ones that will require a lot of time, but some smaller things as well. The photos of the finished projects provide plenty of inspiration.

Can you say "challenging"?

A lovely assortment of patterns. Daunting for a beginner like me, but sure to engage someone for many, many, many pleasant hours. These are big, complex patterns with good directions and colors plainly listed/described. A good reference.

Cats of the World in Cross Stitch

I have other books by Jayne Netley Mayhew and Nicki Wheeler and I like every one of them. So far this is my favorite and I like how some of the designs can be used for needlepoint as well as cross stitch. It has designs with jungle cats as well as domestic cats and it is very hard to pick a favorite. Both ladies work very well with each other. I'm looking forward to their new book this month and want to collect all the books they will make in the future.
