Lighthouse Project

Fiona designed this Stormy Night lightning

fabric with Sew-it-All specifically for this

lighthouse design. Here we’ve stitched

the design centrally on the piece of fabric,

but if you wanted the lightning bolt in a

different position, you can always adjust to

suit. Before you start stitching, remember

to make sure to leave enough space

around the edges for framing or making

up into the finished item of your choice.

If you’ve never stitched with

glow-in-the-dark thread

before, you’re in for a treat!

For the best results and

to prevent fraying, work

with shorter lengths of

DMC Light Effects glow-in-

the-dark thread, no more

than 30cm (12in). If the

thread becomes twisted

while stitching, just let your

needle drop and it’ll then

unwind all by itself.

To make your project

glow, expose it to light for

a few minutes, then turn

off the light and watch

it gleam in the dark – it’s

simply magical!

use glow-in-the-

dark thread

How to...

I’m in love with this stormy fabric

• it gives me goosebumps! It’s a

powerful, exciting image and gives

the illusion of a big, rumbling

storm. This, plus stitching the

swirling sea at the bottom gives

the scene a sense of depth.
