July 2025 YEARS AGO, WE lived in the beautiful city of Bath, right opposite the fabulous Royal Crescent where we sometimes glimpsed film crews creating the next exciting costume drama (long before the days of Bridgerton!). This Georgian city is always associated with the author Jane Austen and every September a special festival opens with a parade through the city – people come from all over the world to take part and dress up as if back in Regency times. It’s quite a sight! We thought we might go back this year as the celebrations for 250 years since Jane Austen’s birth promise to be quite something. We thought it would be fun to capture Jane Austen’s heroines in stitches. In a special two part tribute, we capture our favourite characters, starting on page 24.  Jane’s pale heroines probably wouldn’t favour the amount of sunshine we have elsewhere in this issue! A cushion bursting with bright blooms is waiting to be stitched on page 34, a hothouse packed with plants is on page 42, a punnet of strawberries pincushion is on 29 and the sunniest cards send the warmest wishes on page 21.   Happy stitching!

Love receiving my copy every month. it is very difficult to get these craft magazines in South Africa, and our post is non-existent I'm afraid so being able to read and print out items online is wonderful. Reviewed 13 March 2025

When you subscribe on line, you don't always get all the freebies. I think they should be included. Reviewed 13 February 2025

I'm also a big fan of the variety of projects: I've stitched cards, ornaments, bags, pillows, needle cases, pin cushions, and toys! Clear instructions, but I wish there were more pictorial instructions for the projects (pillows, toys, etc.) that require some previous sewing experience. With these projects, they are best put together with a sewing machine. ">

Best contemporary cross stitch mag out there!

Clean, clear, coloured charts with easily identifiable symbols. UK magazine, so there are more cultural references to Brittain and Europe than North America. If you're a fan of Emma Congdon ("Stitchrovia"), you'll find lots of her patterns within the past 3 years (2020 onwards). There are hardly any patterns I wouldn't consider stitching!
