CrossStitcher | April 2020
SEVERAL YEARS AGO – actually more than several as it was before we had our family – we lived in the beautiful city of Bath. Our home was right next to a park where hot air balloons were launched on clear days. It was fascinating to see these colourful monsters come to life, inflating from only a heap of fabric.
Sometimes the balloon teams asked for extra help and we could find a walk in the park involved the job of holding guy ropes before take off! There is a real magic to hot air balloons and we couldn’t resist asking Susan Bates to recreate this feeling in our bold cover design on page 77. We couldn’t stop at one and asked her to design a whole ‘fi esta’ (we think that’s the collective noun). We hope you love the design as much as we do.
We think we can feel a tiny hint of spring in the air, so we’ve started to think about our garden and what we will grow this year. For now, we prefer the thought of being cosy indoors with a bit of stitching. Faye Walsh brings us the best of both worlds with her gardening sampler. Turn to page 18 to do a bit of armchair gardening yourself.
Happy stitching!
