H

ere’s a picture of the

Easter decoration that

I stitched. It was a kit from

WOXS issue 279 (April 2019).

I liked it instantly because

I love the charts of Durene

Jones – they are so lovely, and

this bunny is very sweet. Now,

it is hanging in my kitchen –

spring and Easter are here in

the heart of my home. I hope

you like it. Thank you so much

for inspiring me every month.

Happy stitching!

Veronica Paratico, Italy

Sue: It’s just not Easter

without a cute rabbit and

some eggs. To accompany

your decoration, you might

want to stitch Jenny Barton’s

Easter hanging, too (see p62).

Easter is here!

Star Letter

D

ear WOXS, this is my latest finished project. I designed

and stitched it as a thank you for Gill, our County

Commissioner in Girlguiding, Caernarfonshire. This is a hugely

demanding volunteer role which Gill did with such passion, so

we had to have a very special way of saying thank you.

The project is a mixture of owl designs from the magazine,

slightly customised to give a Girlguiding theme and some of

the badges that were designed for events during her time in

the role. I always get such great pleasure in designing pictures

to reflect people’s personality and interests.

Heather Bonnebaigt, Conwy

Tina: This is such a sweet and touching gift, Heather. I bet

that Gill will be delighted to receive such a personal present.

As a former Girl Guide myself, I know just how important

people like Gill are and that they deserve much appreciation.
