The art of cutting out paper profiles may have died out, but cross stitch lends itself perfectly to the tradition of producing outlines in a single colour on a background of a contrasting colour. Black on white always looks extremely effective and sophisticated, but fabrics and stranded cottons are now available  in such a wealth of colours that even the same outline worked in different colourways can be made to look subtly different and personal.    
   The designs in this book include an wide range of motifs and illustrations, which can be used singly or combined with each other to create unusual and highly attractive projects.
    JULIE HASLER is the author of over 20 books on needlecrafts and cross stitch and her work has been widely featured in many popular craft and needlecraft magazines.
