Make your bathroom special and cross stitch your laundry basket
With its pretty pastel blue, pink and yellow colour scheme and gingham pattern this laundry-themed alphabet is as bright and fresh as a newly washed pile of clothes. Each letter sets the scene for washday, and has long grass and flowers, washing pegged out on
the line and there’s even a little blue bird to help. You’ll find stitching each letter an easy task, there are no fractional stitches and just a smattering of French knots and backstitch outline each letter and bring detail to the washing line, flowers and bird. Each squeaky clean letter will take just a few hours to complete.
