COUNTDOWN TO CHRISTMAS
We feel a bit like squirrel sat this time of year. Rather than storing up food for winter, we’re busy gathering ideas and materials for the celebration we love most, Christmas. So many people grumble when they see Christmas cards and wrapping paper in the shops in September but we love making plans when there’s still the dream of fitting the mall in. So this issue we have some gorgeous festive projects you can get started on, including our sweet
Holly Hearthanger. Plus, we have a whole supplement of Christmas designs to inspire you.

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!
