Lights! Camera! Action!
Welcome to our television and film themed issue!
Watching a good film or a TV programme can be so absorbing - you're transported elsewhere. Stitching does the same thing; everything else gets shut out as you fully concentrate on what's in hand. It's pure escapism.
In this issue there is something for everyone! From projects that will demand your full attention to others that will keep hands happily occupied while you have one eye on the tv.
For starters there's Stacey Chapman's Wizard of Oz inspired free-machining blockbuster. It's not a project for the faint-hearted but put your trust in Stacey, follow her instructions along the yellow brick road and you will find it is a journey well-worth undertaking.
Or you could get up close and personal with your favourite Hollywood icon - Catherine Hicks guides you through the process of creating a likeness in stitch.
There is something more classic about our Secret Garden project or switch to something more light-hearted - Bird on a Wire. There are Clangers and Shibori plus so much more for you to binge on in this issue. All that remains to be said is Needle! Thread! Stitch!
