William Morris...

Here are two of the samplers which are featured in the book 'The Art of William Morris in Cross Stitch' which I borrowed from the library.
Barbara Hammet has created these samplers based on the work of William Morris. She also gives a little history behind each of the pieces. With each of the works she explains her decisions about the way she has stitched it.

There seems to be so much I like about this book it may be another I could add to my library...

The William Morris exhibition is at the Melbourne Museum until about mid February. It was mentioned in "Fifty-Something" newsletter that I got today. I wouldn't mind seeing it - would you like to go in one day together?
