his is me holding my version of Kay
Widdowson’s ‘China Dogs’ from issue
276 (Jan 2019), which I completed recently.
It will be a birthday present for my daughter
to complement ‘Fantasy in Blue’, which was
her last birthday gift. I had trouble with the
French knots, so I left some out and I also
adapted the flowers at the bottom. l am
fairly happy with the result.
Heather Byram, Australia
Tina: I think you should be absolutely
delighted with the result, Heather – it
looks stunning! Kay’s designs are always
bursting with colour and fun patterns, so
it’s no wonder they’re a hit. I hope you’ll
also enjoy her sparkling koi design that
appeared in issue 291 (Jan 2020).aa
I
made this animal matching game for
my little granddaughter, Eliana’s, second
birthday, and put her initials on a box for
her to keep them in. She lives in America,
so I will be taking them over with me in a
couple of months’ time.
I just love cross stitching and keep allmy favourite designs in a folder, so I always
have something good to stitch.

Emily: Designed by Rhona Norrie in issue
284 (September 2019), these animal pairs
will provide hours of fun! Well done, Tina.MAKE LEARNING FUN!

What a special gift for Tina’s little
granddaughter in the United StatesPorcelain pups
Heather left out some of the tricky French knots in
this piece, but the result is still absolutely stunning!I
thought you might like to
see my latest project for
your Letters page. I love all the
colours of the wildflowers in
this design, and I love the little
butterflies and insects, too.
It’s by Joy Sunday* and called
‘Welcome the Spring’. This
reminds me of my wildflower
patch at the bottom of the
garden, and I have enjoyed
every minute of
stitching this.

beautiful design,

the joys of the new
