Morris"s exquisite design work--widely appreciated and found in many museums--is generally beyond the reach of the general public.

Although the information on basic techniques is well presented, these are intricate designs best attempted by those with some needlepoint experience. The designs are so luscious, however, that even beginners may be inspired to practice in order to create these lovely pieces.
