Cross Stitch & Country Crafts by EGW Publishing Co. (Crafts, Magazine, 1988, family tree chart, cross-stitch magazine, 80s crafts, wedding keepsakes, vintage magazine)

This is the May/June 1988 issue of "Cross Stitch & Country Crafts" magazine, with 20 projects inside. The cover features a large, detailed family tree sampler, and other themes include wedding keepsakes, a Victorian garden, and "Teatime Elegance."

Review:
A beautiful issue featuring an impressive family tree sampler, a classic and ambitious project for any needleworker. The content is a great example of the heirloom-quality projects and refined country style popular in the late 1980s.

Author summary:
"Cross Stitch & Country Crafts" was a major magazine in the crafting world of the 1980s and 90s, known for its high-quality projects that combined intricate cross-stitch with the popular "country living" aesthetic.

The collectible value is low. Back issues of this popular magazine are not rare. Its value is for the highly desirable family tree pattern and as a historical artifact of late-80s needlework and home decor trends.
