CrossStitcher  |  May 2020
THE ARRIVAL OF SPRING used to be a bit more of a definite thing.
You’d know roughly when bulbs would start to sprout and trees and shrubs begin to bud. Now we can never be quite sure what nature might do next, so we’ve taken the decision to stitch spring instead with all the elements that we would like to see!
We’re starting with the next in our window view series (page 18) – this time Susan Bates has us pausing for a cuppa (and a biscuit!), gazing past a beautiful vase of blossoms out to a view of a fresh green garden. We are a bit oldfashioned, so we asked her to add a washing line of fresh laundry. There’s nothing like the way clothes and sheets smell when dried outdoors – it’s even nice just watching them ripple in the breeze on the line on a windy day!
Spring also means cute baby animals, so we have ducks with ducklings on page 24. Thoughts also turn to weddings, so we’ve come up with something you will love to stitch for a bride. Try the simple lace effects Amanda Butler has created on page 70.
Happy stitching!
