Wedding season is always around the corner—get all our wedding-specific patterns in this 78-page book! It provides patterns and techniques for you to integrate into your Stitch People portraits that are specifically geared towards marriage proposals, engagement announcements, weddings, and anniversaries.
Did you know that one of the very first Stitch People portraits ever given was a gift for a wedding? Cross-stitching, being a centuries-old pastime, lends itself well to creating heirlooms that can be passed down from generation to generation. What better piece to pass along than a piece celebrating the union of two people from which the generations will grow!
