What to give for Father’s Day this year? We made this the challenge for our three designers this month. They were given just seven thread shades and a plastic coaster to fi ll with a design for Dad - with no cheating allowed! With many families apart from their dads this year, a coaster is the perfect gift to pop in the post with a card. We hope their results will inspire you to join in too - turn the page to see what our challenge will be for July - we’ve listed everything you need to take part.
