Lovely

New Stitches was a lovely embroidery magazine with a wide range of techniques. The instructions were always clear and easy to understand and I liked how methods or styles were played with you show you examples. Sadly the magazine is no longer published and you can tell it was struggling in the final few issues (no stitched models, just computer generated ones, urgh!).

I'd highly recommend it for anyone who wants to play around with embroidery techniques.
