DRAWN TO STITCH

For those of you who perceive they cannot draw to inspire them to stitch, Gwen Hedley has written this very inspiring book, she is the author of Surfaces to Stitch.
Some of you may have seen her at the knit and stitch show at the week-end, she was there signing her new book. If you have bought it already bring it along with you on Wednesday.
