Beach huts picture

O

h we do like to be

beside the seaside –

and so will you with

these sunny little beach huts!

The vivid colours and coastal

motifs – bunting, seagulls and

flags flying gently in the breeze

• bring to mind happy holidays
  of the past, and those yet to
  come. Stitch this jolly scene as

a present for a loved one, or

frame and use it to complement

your coastal decor for year-

round sun. This design is ideal

for intermediate level stitchers

who want a bigger project to

practise fractionals and French

knots. If you’ve got a holiday

booked, we think this stitch

could be a perfect companion! Stitching
