DECEMBER GLOW

BEHIND THE PROJECT

APPLIQUÉ JOY!

“It’s always fun to have smaller projects to make in the run up to Christmas and this is definitely one of those. It’s also a wonderful opportunity to use some precious favourite Christmas scraps you have saved for something special. The collection of shapes in this month’s cover gift offers several possible designs.

“We have included some variations here but why not have a go at your own! I love the shape of this arch; it can sit perfectly above a doorway or, if you use my tip in step 22, it will sit on a dresser or side board. Why not make one for a loved one with their family name on it!” – Paula Hope

You will need

■ Background fabric – 14in x 27in

■ ¼in bias tape – 1yd
