Guide Review - Snow Much Fun by Leisure Arts - Designer Ursula Michael
Designer Ursula Michael has created thirteen projects with a snowy theme in Leisure Arts Snow Much Fun. Projects range from small to large. Few fractional stitches are used in the designs, so even beginning stitchers will enjoy these projects. The color patterns and keys are large print, making them easy to read, for the most part. A few of the darker color symbols may be slightly difficult for some stitchers to distinguish.
The designs are cute without being too cartoonish or cutesy due to well-chosen floss colors and creative design.
