New Stitches Magazine Issue 258 Back Issue

This month's inspirational issue is perfect for making a start on your Christmas stitching whether for cards or gifts. Our collection of shimmering stained glass windows will look amazing on any mantelpiece and you make cards for special people by personalising the design with a name. Give your home some Scandinavian style with the wonderful reindeer cushion and table runner worked in frosty hues. Give the gift of a gorgeous bloom with our blue and mauve tinged hydrangea which is full of close-up detail. Decorate your dining table with a pair of splendid placemats highlighted with Hardanger that has a touch of seasonal colour. You can make some funky gifts with cross stitch and tent stitch mobile phone cases. Have fun with all your favourite and precious threads with the Masterclass which combines a variety of stitches and couching with weaving for spectacular effects for projects large and small.
