New Stitches  |  Issue 256
Settle down and enjoy the summer sun in the garden with a relaxing cross stitch project in your garden. There is a vibrant zingy orange, giant gingham tablecloth decorated with daisies that is perfect for al fresco eating. If you are travelling in Europe on holiday you will recognise the colourful window box design bursting with scarlet geraniums. We have a wonderful iris and poppy motif worked in a variety of stitches to being the flowers to life. In the Masterclass, Mary is inspired by Schwalm and takes a fan of Satin stitches to create a dense and faceted all-over pattern with great coverage. You cannot miss the bold paisley motif on the front cover with its jewel shades that sing out from the navy fabric. There are some wonderful cards too which may wonderful standbys for any occasion; choose from delightful hanging baskets or some versatile Hardanger motifs.
