It’s a Love Thing, yeah! Welcome to the Love Issue, featuring 14 modern cross stitch patterns that give you a great opportunity to show your love of needlework! We have a real mix of styles, so there’s bound to be something for everyone! As well as familiar names like Emily Peacock, with her Roxy Music inspired design and Peacock & Fig with her wistful whitework design, we welcome new designers into the mix as well. Melarise joins us from Spain and shows her love of James Blake, while Karen Seelig from the USA gives us a touch of tradition with her patterned piece and from the Netherlands, Ringcat puts a smile on your face with her charming cross stitch! We have some lovely articles, including a book review by Floss and Mischief and many other ones, that we can’t wait for you to discover. (Our way of saying we’re not going to share them here, but trust us, they’re great!) We love cross stitch, and we hope that you love it too! This is our love letter to this wonderful craft, so get stuck in now!
