READER PANEL

Durene Jones is my

favourite designer – I

love all her work! My

favourite part of the

design is the pattern

on the sheep. The

colours are nice and

bright, just like spring!

I would probably give

this to my mum as a

gift as she loves sheep

and springtime.

My little brother has a

springtime birthday, and

this is the perfect gift

to stitch him! I plan to

paint the hoop a pale

green to make it even

more seasonal.
