If you spend any time clicking around the world of embroidery online you have probably already heard about the premier of &Stitches. In case you have not, let me be the one to give you the good news. Nicole of "Follow the White Bunny" and Carina of "Polka and Bloom" have collaborated on a new ezine all about embroidery. It's jam packed with fun and useful information, interviews, patterns and ideas and beautiful photographs. You are going to love it!
I was lucky enough to be asked to contribute a pattern for the first issue and here it is. I wanted to design something that would let people play with different color combinations since the theme was color. It's right there in issue one available right here.
