Hit me with your good luck gift ideas
for my sister. She’s moving to China
for work next month!

Sounds like an exciting
adventure! I’ve got just the
chart in mind for you. Chinese
Lucky Cat is an apt gift for
your sister, and it will give
her something to instantly
brighten up her new home.
This adorable cat is designed
for 14-count aida, uses 10 thread
shades and measures 17.5x26cm
(7x10¼in) – so it’ll be small enough
to fit in her luggage! To buy a digital

My five-year-old son is obsessed
with dinosaurs. Can you find me
a set of designs to stitch him?
Nothing too babyish, as I’d like
him to have them forever!
Becki Allen, Chelmsford
I know a few five year olds who
share the same obsession, Becki.
I hope your son will think these
designs are roar-some, both now
and in the future! They’re called
3 Dinosaurs and are a set of –

be stitched on 18-count aida, you
can use your choice of fabric –

I really want to stitch a framed gift
for my friend and include a short
personal message for them. But
I just don’t feel confident enough
designing something myself,
Anne. Can you help, please?
Diane Murphy, Tewin
What a lovely idea, Diane! I’m
sure your friend would love that.
There are quite a few companies
that offer a ser vice where they will
chart your message for you, but
I really like the designs available
from Peppermint Purple. This
particular one, the Create Your
Own Custom Modern Floral
design, is my favourite, and costs
£24.95. All you need to do is send
Peppermint Purple your chosen
message, approve or amend the
design they send to you, then
wait for your cross stitch chart
to arrive via email within seven
days. It’s really as simple as that!
