This isn’t your grandma’s sampler. Inside these pages you’ll find sleepy owls begging for “one more stitch”, frogs who refuse to be frogged, elephants who “forget to count”, and a whole menagerie of cheeky animals stitched with sass. Every design comes with a wink, a grin, and a reminder that cross stitch is supposed to be fun.
I’ve stitched for over 30 years and designed for five, and my mission is simple: make cross stitch affordable, accessible, and absolutely irresistible. These patterns are quick to pick up, easy to finish, and packed with personality—perfect for late-night stitchers, coffee-fueled creatives, and anyone who loves a good laugh with their floss.
So grab your hoop, thread your needle, and join the party. Because in this book, every stitch tells a story—and every animal has something cheeky to say.
