Craft your own comfort with these uplifting cross stitch quotes.
Cross Stitch for the Soul is a collection of beautifully designed motivational and inspirational quotes rendered in easy cross-stitching techniques that will raise the spirits, both during the making process and beyond, as gifts for loved ones or as treasured pictures on the wall.
Cross stitch is a wonderfully calming and mindful occupation, a chance to slow down, embrace the process and create something beautiful. The 20 designs in this collection feature quotes that will resonate with anyone in need of a little boost.
Designed by leading cross stitch designer Emma Congdon, aka Stitchrovia, whose modern styling appeals to crafters of all ages and abilities, these inspiring quotes will provide comfort, motivation and an all-round positive spin on life, reminding us that we are brave, strong and have the power to make our own futures - one stitch at a time!
Emma is a multidisciplinary designer based in London. After graduating from University of the Arts London in 2009 she worked as a graphic designer for a variety of advertising and packaging design agencies before rediscovering her love of cross stitch design. She now divides her time between her commercial design work and creating cross stitch patterns. Known for their typographic flair and bold use of colour, Emma's designs have featured extensively in magazines both in the UK and USA, including Cross Stitcher, World of Cross Stitching and Cross Stitch Crazy. Alongside her commission-based work she also sells her patterns to stitchers all over the world through her online Etsy store 'Stitchrovia'.
