With intertwined stems and prettiest petals in sunburst shades, this abc has got to be one of the loveliest we’ve seen. And we hope you’ll feel the same as you watch your work blooming into radiant life with every stitch. Thanks to the pretty shades and elegant styling, we think this would make the Mother’s Day cross stitch gift. Stitch her name on a fabric purse, create a card with her initial, or spell out ‘Mum’ on a piece of aida and place in a padded frame for her to use as a jewellery tidy. Simply choose a piece of fabric larger than your frame, add a piece of wadding behind, and position your stitching at the top. Then just wait for the sunny smile. This design was originally published in Cross Stitch Crazy issue 200.
