Originally created in 1999 for the children's reading room of the Historical Carnegie Library in San Anselmo, California, this whimsical Michael Schwab design has become a classic of poster art. Generations of children have settled down in their beds ready to listen to a good story before nodding off to sleep. The image of a storytelling bear and a rapt audience connects strongly to similar memories in all of us. For nearly three decades, Michael Schwab has built a reputation as one of America's most recognized and best-loved graphic artists. His use of large flat areas of color, dramatic perspectives, and bold yet simple designs make his work easily recognizable. During that same time period, The Posy Collection has been interpreting our major historical sites, prominent natural wonders, and selected graphic arts in cross stitch. This kit is a result of a combination of their efforts aimed at "preserving our story in stitches." Michael Schwab's Storytime in cross stitch would be at home on the wall of any child's room.
