Hello little ones

Q Please could you let me know if any back issues have baby samplers or birth announcement patterns?

Sam Ehrlich, via email

  How about this sweet woodland-themed 'Baby Sampler' project, designed by Lisa Reakes? The folk Etsy store – just visit to download the chart so you can start stitching straight away. The finished design measures approx. 20.5x25.5cm (8x10in) when stitched on 14- or 28-count fabric and includes a guide to help you plot out your own names and birth details. Don’t forget to check out the cute new baby cards in our Etsy store, too.
