You Had Me at Meow…

Working with over-dyed floss is always fun – the trick is to complete both legs of each stitch as you go, so the colour changes flow through the design. The direction you stitch (horizontal or vertical) can change the entire look of a piece! In this design and the one featured in our last issue (Winter 2014/15) Jo Gatenby used floss colours that remind us of the animals they represent – and how cute is that paw print fabric?
