Welcome to our latest Catalogue of Cross Stitch designs byMichael Powell. Mike has been designing now for 9 yearsand his portfolio and range continues to grow. His designs
are based on his love of Buildings and Architecture, Gardens andthe Countryside and his many trips abroad.His original paintings, normally created in pen and ink andwatercolour are then translated into various needlework designs,whether it be cross stitch or tapestry.Our designs cater for everyone, from the beginner to the mostexperienced of stitchers. The materials are of the best quality,and each kit includes either Aida or Even weave fabric, pre-sortedthread cards, needle and instructions. The charts andinstructions are clear and very easy to understand and all kitscome with a separate backstitch chart.Mike has introduced, for the first time, a range of quirky Button-kits.These allow the stitcher to become the artist and once the designis complete, they have the option of where to place their buttonsto finish off their scene. These innovative new designs can befound on page 3 and sit well alongside his full range of Mini kits,Bookmarks, Little Gems and of course his many other designs.This new catalogue will take you on a journey, covering all cornersof the United Kingdom and some favourite holiday destinations inEurope. Why not travel through some quaint Cottage Gardens,stop off in an English Village before heading into a SpanishHilltown, Greek Village or the hustle and bustle of Venice.New designs include River Cottage, Railway Cottages and MyrtleCottage and are on page 8Mike’s range of Samplers is now growing. New designs of aGarden Sampler and a Home Sampler sit well on page 23 with ourever popular Wedding Sampler and still to come AnniversarySampler.Why not treat yourself or a friend to a Bookmark Kit – Our rangeof 8 can be found on page 4 and include Hearts, Flowers, Vasesand 4 dramatic scenes.Mike’s range of Cross Stitch kits are now very well established inthe market place, and offer the stitcher something very differentand also the opportunity to create something very special – theirvery own piece of Art.Our thanks goes to Julia for her charting, design expertise andher extreme patience, to Sally for her ability to organise theoffice and be a great sounding board, and to of course, ourcustomers, whose loyalty is immense and unwavering.All our designs should be available from your local stockist.For a list of stockists please call 029 2049 6000.
