You can even take cross stitch to a new level, decorating walls with washi tape birds and stitching velvet ribbon onto woven chair seats. Author descriptionHannah Sturrock has always loved cross stitch. She initially ignored the desire to stitch all day and studied law instead. Finding that the barrister's wig didn't sit very comfortably, she started running charity events and ended up as Manager of Christmas at Great Ormond Street Hospital Children's Charity. No other job title was ever going to match that so after having two children, Wilfred and Olive (or Bobo as she is fondly known), she listened again to the call of cross stitch. She started designing her own contemporary patterns and in 2013, her company Bobo Stitch was born. Hannah is now the proud purveyor of cross stitch kits and a joyous embracer of the modern craft revolution. |
