A charming addition to any book lover’s home, bring a touch of Jane Austen’s wit & wisdom to your favourite cosy corner with this beautifully stitched quote from Northanger Abbey. This completed & framed cross stitch features the line:
“If adventures will not befall a young lady in her own village, she must seek them abroad.”
A gentle nudge to the next generation of adventurers - reminding young girls that their world can be as wide and wonderful as they dare to imagine.
Let Austen’s words be a call to action. Adventure doesn’t always wait - sometimes, we must go and find it ourselves.
Whether you’re a lifelong Austen devotee or enchanted by the elegance of Regency literature, this piece makes a thoughtful gift for any reader, writer or romantic.
