For this cross stitch design collection, we've included our four popular "Flutters". This 72 page book includes all four of the butterflies shown on the front cover, charted in detail with many colors for exquisite detail. All stitches in each of the patterns contain only full cross stitches. There are no blended stitches, fractional stitches or backstitching. The detail is created by utilizing lots of DMC colors and the end result is very well worth it. Each pattern is accompanied by it's own "Shopping List" which lists all floss colors and an approximation of how many skeins you will need when multiples are required. A project planner page is included at the back of the book as well. The project planner helps you to decide what size fabric you need in addition to other preparations for your project.

It's easy to become mesmerized by the behaviour of butterflies. These fluttering insects display many vivid colours, behaviours and grow to be various sizes. One cannot help but marvel at the adaptational abilities and skills demonstrated as a butterfly flies on windy days or hovers while gathering nectar. Demonstrate your skills with Nature's Delights, Volume 2, Fluttering Butterfly Cross-Stitch. This cross stitch pattern depicts the stitches and colours required to cross stitch this design by using easy to read and to differentiate symbols, making it an easy to read multi-page pattern.
