YOUR FREE CARD RABBIT CHRISTMAS :z IT in 10 CARD SHOP ird ill out a few ig craft adhesive, as lettering to Start stitching here Identify the thread colours in your kit from the key and the symbols used to represent them on the chart. Start stitching the design in the centre (where the two black ‘o’ lines cross on the chart). Fold the fabric in half each way to find its centre (this is where the folds cross). Thread the needle with two strands of yellow. Make a cross stitch for each yellow symbol on the chart. This stitch has two diagonal arms and fills one square on both the chart and fabric (a square on the fabric is marked out by four holes). To work a cross stitch, bring the needle up in the bottom left corner of the square and take it down in the top right. Bring it back up in the bottom right and down in the top left as shown in the diagram. Bring the needle up to work the next stitch, using the same holes as your previous stitch along one side. Secure the end of the thread under your first few stitches. Count the same number of squares on both the chart and the fabric to keep your place. When you need to change colour, thread your needle through the back of your stitches and cut the end close to where it emerges. 5Add the backstitch outlines when you have finished all the cross stitch. This is worked in a ‘one step back, two steps forward’ motion following the chart and the diagram on page 64. Bring the needle up one hole from the end of the line and take it down at the end. Bring it up again one hole in front of where you started. Work all the backstitch in this way using one strand of black or red following the key. Finally, add the French knots in red for the holly berries as explained on page 65.

Rayon threads have a wonderful sheen and are also more springy than stranded cotton making your stitches stand out against the fabric for a real impact. This does mean they are a little harder to handle than stranded cotton. Dampen the threads with a wet sponge before you start stitching to smooth out any kinks and reduce static. It is also a good idea to stick to short lengths of thread and use a good quality needle such as a gold-plated one to prevent the rayon from snagging. ь $ S $ $ S $ т i s s $ $ $ $ s $ $ s S s s $ $ $ $ $ $ $ e e e e e e Je e а а ее a a ее J.e G a a «ТГй—з я « s $ s s $ $ s $ s $ .

MINCE PIE RECIPE BK Card shop These designs are worked in whole cross stitch and backstitch only, which makes them nice and easy to stitch. Ingredients to make 24 pies 225g (8oz) butter, cubed 450g (ilb) plain flour 60g (2oz) icing sugar 2 egg yolks For the filling 450g (ilb) mincemeat a dash or two of brandy to taste To make the mince pies Sift the flour into a bowl and add the butter. Rub the two together using your fingertips until it looks like breadcrumbs, and then mix in the icing sugar. Add the egg yolks and mix to make a smooth, but not sticky dough, adding a drop or two of water if required. Chill in the fridge for half an hour. Roll the dough on a floured board to about 7mm thickness. Cut out 24 rounds using a 6cm cutter and line bun or muffin tins with your circles. Fill these w’th two tablespoons of mincemeat. Roll the remaining pastry again and cut tops for your pies using a 5cm cutter. Dampen the edge of each pie to seal the top and push down gently with your thumb around the outside. Cook at 2oo°C for 20 minutes, until slightly browned. Sprinkle with a little icing sugar for a delicious Christmas treat. Cross Stitch CARD SHOP * 9

HOW TO MOUNT YOUR CARD —Ж *«*«.> Ml* — I- ГИ M МП Ш — M ПШ H-Ч11Ч - ~ - .-. — FINISHING When you have taken the trouble to stitch a beautiful design for someone, you want it to look good framed in a card. Follow our tips for a professional finish YOU WILL NEED: Your finished stitched piece Soft, clean towel Thick card or foam mouse-mat Dressmaking pins Scissors Wash your work following the guidelines on page 64 and allow to dry. Lay your design face down on a fluffy towel and press it with a medium iron. Lay your pressed work face up on the card or mouse-mat. Place your card aperture over it and move it until you are happy with the way it looks. Stick pins around the inner edges of the aperture On square cards place pins in the corners Thin wadding Double-sided tape Carefully lift off the card mount and trim the fabric to about 1cm away from the pins. This will leave enough fabric for securing the stitching inside the card Attach small pieces of double-sided tape to the back of the card around the edge of the aperture. On square cards use longer strips around the edges To ensure the design goes in the card the right way, mark the flap that folds down on your stitching in pencil Peel off the tape backing and put the card, right way up, over the fabric, using the pins as a guide. Press down on the aperture to make the tape stick to the fabric. Turn the card over and put the wadding, cut to the size of aperture, over the back of the stitching (this is optional but gives a nice padded look). Attach strips of tape to the left-hand flap as shown. Peel off the backing and carefully fold the flap down on top of the stitching. i L- A BERS Use this handy alphabet and set of numbers to add your own messages to any of the cards in the magazine ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQR STUVWXYZ I I > » * ! | - I - —I-| ——I .
