H


ere is my latest creation,


which I really enjoyed. I


thought you might like to see


it – my version of Amanda


Gregory’s ‘Beautiful Blooms’,


from issue 276 of WOXS.


Sylvia Sanderson,


via email


Beautiful blooms


Emily: Thanks for sending in


your photo, Sylvia! It’s always


great to see readers’ finished


projects. We especially love


how you’ve chosen to finish


your work, by leaving the aida


with a raw edge, and pegged


onto a framed washing line.


Star Letter


T


his is a picture of the cross stitch project that I’ve just


finished. I am going to give it to my sister, who is a cancer


survivor, an artist and a cat lover. She has been away for the


summer, so I’m hoping she will like this surprise I have waiting


for her upon her return.


I got the pattern from the Spring 2018 issue of Cross Stitch


Favourites magazine. I have been cross stitching for many


years, but only discovered your magazine about four years


ago at my craft store. I enjoy your magazine very much, and


there are always a couple of projects in it I want to make.

Hannah: Well done on creating such a heartwarming and


cheerful gift for your amazing sister, Diane! She certainly


deserves your handmade kitty artist, for everything that she


has had to endure, and there is nothing more heartfelt than


a gift that takes time, love and effort.


For more fun animal projects like this, turn to page 72 for


our cute animal matching game, or you might like to try the


rustic chickens placemat on page 40.


Congratulations on winning this month’s star letter prize,


Diane. We hope you enjoy creating more works of art!
