CrossStitcher  |  December 2019
A BIG PART OF THE CLASSIC Christmas magic is lists. Little ones make a list of things they’d love to find under the tree, while we who are a bit more responsible for creating the magic and sparkle, write shopping lists and lists of those we will send cards to. This issue our cover design pays tribute to the humble list – and the figure that makes the big list of who has been naughty or nice this year! Get started on this retro-style design on page 18.
We’ve aimed to make this issue feel like that other Christmas essential, the selection box. There’s something for every stitcher, from a modern bauble wreath (page 64) to a wall hanging celebrating the most classic of Christmas songs (page 57). We’ve even got Baby’s first Christmas covered on page 26.
We also have some behind-the-scenes news – we’re excited to now be a part of the Warners Group Publications Craft Portfolio. Everything about your favourite magazine will remain just as good as before, plus we have some really exciting projects planned!
Happy Christmas stitching!
