This fantasy counted cross stitch pattern entitled Home is Where My Books Are show books as tall as buildings lined up in a surreal nighttime setting. The books, in fact, are actually homes fashioned to look like books that are owned by bibliophiles (booklovers) who love reading so much that they have made books their actual home. Inside each home, the furniture, fixtures, etc. all resemble books. Wish we could take a peek inside. With the street light burning and a clear night sky, the stars are shining and everything is all right with the world, according to booklovers. Only full cross stitches are used in our patterns. No blended colors are used. We only use an abundance of solid colors as it produces a more realistic effect.
