Making a splash
Could I have a realistic-looking orca? It’s my favourite animal!
Jade Kenny, Ireland
I think orcas are such majestic creatures. This was joy to design!
Lucie
Hootin-tootin!
Can you chart an owl playing a bass clarinet? I just started playing again.
Carrie Marshall, Oldham
What a delightful request, Carrie! Enjoy your chart and clarinet-playing.
Lucie
Pooch pal
I’d like a chart for a liver and tan
miniature schnauzer. I’ve found
many with salt and pepper fur,
but none in my girl’s colours.
Betty Moens, Canada
Well, Betty, now you
have a chart just for your
special girl! I hope this
design looks like her.
Have fun stitching it!
Lucie
