Hey peeperettes,
I've had a lovely, lovely morning,
planning out my Christmas crafts for the next few weeks.
Will I be sharing them with you?
Is Santa's belly big?
Of course!!
{We're besties, right?!}
I've got an utterly gorgeous book to tempt you this Christmas.
I only ever review books that I own and use and adore myself....
Published by Jacqui Small and written by Jan Constantine,
Love Stitching is a gorgeous mix of handicrafts that YOU CAN DO!
Do you remember my Jan Constantine Union Jack cushion from our dining room?
I bought it a couple of years ago and it's STILL one of my absolute favourites.
Well, my pretties, Love Stitching is choc-a-block full of similarly divine projects dreamed up by Jan Constantine herself. If you love the look of that cushion then you will L:O:V:E this book
I am in lust with her skill, her designs and her attention to detail.
It's a collection of 25 appliqued and hand-embroidery designs
....and includes the Union Jack cushion - waahhhey!
Divided into four chapters:
Love and Hearts,
In The Country,
Flying the Flag
Beside the Sea......
....with luscious projects to match each theme.
There are some easy-peasy crafts and one or two that are way up there in the difficulty stakes...but you somehow know that they'd be treasured heirlooms forever.
The instructions are written by Jan who completely knows her crafts inside out, which makes them a pleasure to read (and follow!).
I can't wait to share my first Christmas project of the season with you - complete with tutorial - inspired by Love Stitching!
You'll be drooling, I tell you. D.r..o.o.l.i.n.g.
