We’re delighted to be issuing our first catalogue as a newly independent publishing company, David and Charles Ltd. Earlier this year we completed a Management Buy-Out of the former F&W Media International UK books business. It was entirely fitting to return to the name under which the company was originally founded, David and Charles. We are excited to continue with the innovative, niche publishing synonymous with our name. The featured titles in these pages give you a flavour of the type of publishing you can expect from David and Charles. Modern Crochet Bible is a brilliant, comprehensive technique book that builds on our strengths in publishing category dominant titles. Knit Like a Latvian - Socks is the perfect follow-up to the hugely successful book of last year. Quilts from Tilda’s Studio celebrates the exquisite fabric design by Tilda creative force, Tone Finnanger, and Journal with Purpose could not be more on-trend and is already setting pre-order sales alight. We will be building on these books and the other featured titles with a growing list and ambitious publishing plans as we look forward into 2020 and beyond. Throughout, our aim is to continue developing the relationships we have with domestic and international retailers, foreign language partners, authors and the wider industry. Ours is an open and collaborative approach and we welcome any feedback, contact, ideas and discussion of opportunities for great books and increased sales. Feel free to contact me on the details below or talk to any member of our team. We look forward to working with you. Best Wishes,

CROSS STITCH FOR THE SOUL CROSS STITCH FOR THE SOUL Emma Congdon Cross Stitch for the Soul is a collection of beautifully designed motivational and inspirational quotes rendered in easy cross-stitching techniques that will raise the spirits.

That’s why it throws us a bitter tasting curveball every so often (or even worse a raw onion or two).
