At this lovely time of year, flowers are abundant, and May’s blooms include bluebells, primroses and violets, all wonderful themes for stitching.
Stitching is often cited as being an important influence on people attempting to take up new lifestyles that avoid bad habits – smoking, alcohol abuse, eating disorders – purely by its capacity to distract the mind from the vices that can ruin our lives and produce improved self esteem.
Also, as the weather becomes warmer, and as we shed our thick winter woollies, many of us are aware that we need to become more fit and toned for the summer months.
Shaun the Sheep: Exercise Time Mini
Ref. SS00100
This cross stitch kit - showing Shaun the Sheep doing his workout - is a great way to motivate stitchers to keep up exercise regimes. And while everyone is thinking of self improvement, how about spending some odd moments this month learning something new… French knots? Hardanger? Cable stitches? Hobbies are always more interesting if some challenges are involved, so trying something new right now may bring great rewards.
