This month in Homespun – April

Hi everyone!

Launching this month is the first ever What’s My Stitch? newsletter combined with our sister publication, Quilters Companion. Delivered to your email inbox each month, you’ll find all of the best bits from both magazines in our newsletter – from clever crafty tools to fabric round-ups and everything in between.

This month’s Homespun is jam-packed with wonderful projects. We have the cleverest book shaped bookends, an Autumnal wallhanging, Part 3 of the China Shop block of the month, and so many more projects and ideas to inspire you.

As a special online-only for Homespun readers and What’s My Stitch? subscribers, you’ll be able to access our special Stitch Steps. Each month we will feature a different embroidery stitch in this handy photo tutorial. It is sure to become your go-to-guide for mastering embroidery stitches. This month, we’re looking at the detached chain stitch, also known as lazy daisy.

Happy stitching!
