Alice Peterson's Bookshelf Series (Cookbooks, Childrens' Books, and Classic Books) UPDATED

Ridgewood Needlepoint just announced Stephanie Dresher-Mandelbaum is working on a stitch guide for Alice Peterson's new "Cookbooks" canvas.  Here's a photograph of it I found online.

The guide is free if you buy the threads from the shop or $20 if you only want the guide.  Of course Ridgewood can get you the canvas, too.    Just talk to the shop for help.
