    I’m so glad you like the book! I’m hoping there is enough demand to do another, but I’d be interested to know if readers of this blog would like to see a Manga Cross-Stitch website with downloadable patterns and more hints and tips. The MCS Facebook page has a relatively small number of fans so far but feedback there is quite positive – the more views I can get, the better I know which way to take Manga Cross-Stitch for the future.

    This would go nicely with several of the anime/manga patterns already in my collection. I know more than a few people (myself included) that would love pieces from this book, especially if I stitched them.
