READER PANEL

I love the idea of

stitching lettering

onto a shopping bag

so that I’m not using

plastic, or a bag for

the kitchen which says

‘onions’ or ‘bread’ on

it. I could also use up

floss or aida which I

have left over from

previous projects to

make personalised

bookmarks using

this fun ABC.

Stitching Time

Approx. 3-5 hours each

Type of Stitches

Cross stitch, fractionals,

backstitch

Ease of Stitching

Beginner/advanced beginner

A fab

collection

to keep
