Made just for you
Here’s a card I made using a dahlia chart by Amanda Gregory from issue 216 (June 2014). I had lots of fun stitching it and adding my own embellishments. There are lots of people I know with big birthdays this year, so I also stitched this design from Faby Reilly’s butterfly stitch masterclass from issue 298 (October 2020). My friend loves butterflies and the colour blue, so it was perfect for her upcoming big birthday. I was really excited to try this design, even though the Rhodes butterfly stitch was a bit tricky– thankfully there was a video to follow!
