Take traditional blackwork embroidery technique, mix it up with a splash of modern colour and stitch this fun bookmark designed by Lesley Teare.
A pumpkin a day keeps the goblins away, that’s what they say, right?! Maybe a pumpkin a day would be too much, but you could create this gorgeous, brightly coloured pumpkin cross stitch greeting card instead… to keep the goblins at bay.
We love this perfect seasonal pumpkin cross stitch card. The speciality oatmeal Aida gives it that extra wow factor, but there’s nothing to trip you up as you grow your skills in a new hobby.
The rustic Aida gives a vintage feel to this pumpkin cross stitch card and sets off the glorious shades of red, yellow, orange, and brown – we’ve totally fallen for them!
