We l c o m e

Meet some  our designers...

T

his issue is another delightful dream, bursting with

new-season stitches for all abilities. Whether you are

looking for a new challenge to test your skills

this spring, or you desire some quick stitches to pick up

and put down, this issue has something to tempt you all.

Why not start by settling down with a good cup of tea

when you start stitching the lovely ‘Tea with Friends’

design from Siobhan Harrison (p18). Breakfast will never be

dull again with Rhona Norrie’s sweet little soldier egg

cosies (p84), which can’t fail to bring a smile to your face!

With Valentine’s Day just around the corner, you

can get busy making our adorable panda (p68), which is

bursting with love or Lucie Heaton’s space pun cards

(p56) are the perfect way to show someone how stellar

they are. I’m also excited to share with you the delicate

family tree (p38) from Angela Poole, as it is a stunning

way to display all your loved ones’ names.

This month is Lucie

Heaton’s 100 th Furry

Tales chart! To celebrate,

Lucie has designed a new

character to join the Furry

Tales family – turn to page 7

to meet Flossie!
