Beautifully photographed with clear, easy instructions, it comes with numerous templates which are perforated for easy removal, so you can stitch your own gorgeous Beatrix Potter characters.
The book includes a short history of Beatrix Potter, together with pictures of some of the property she acquired during her writing years in the Lake District which, upon her death, she left to the National Trust in the UK.
