Ideas for Cross Stitch Projects

Many cross stitch projects are pictures, destined to be framed and hung on stitchers' walls. But there are now a great variety of items which can be produced with a cross-stitch decoration. Many of these items are useful in the home or can be made into lovely gifts.
