There are times when just hollering obscenities won’t do — you need to stab something. Now you can do both. Maybe Swearing Will Help combines two of the best stress-relievers — cursing, and cross stitch — into one of the most irreverently enjoyable crafting experiences you’ll ever have.
With 25+ patterns from the crafting world’s most bad-ass cross-stitch designers, this book has everything from a modern take on the traditional sampler to retro comic book designs, all with snarky to downright foul-mouthed phrases. It is definitely not your grandmother’s cross stitch!
No experience is required. In addition to simple instructions and clear, easy-to-follow patterns, this book includes a guide to basic lessons in cross-stitch techniques, so anyone can start swearing and stabbing right away. Whether you want the world to know that they need to wash their damn hands or you want to stitch a gift for your favourite potty mouth, Maybe Swearing Will Help has just what you need to find your way to inner peace.
