One of the most exciting new e-zines of this year is &Stitches e-zine; well, at least it's for me ;)
It's written by Nicole Vos van Avezathe and Carina Envoldsen-Harris. It's is all about modern and stitching without forgetting about traditional stitching as well.
This issue is all about books, stories and lettering. Cate Anevski is featured in this issue, and she's sharing a set of embroidery patterns called “Big Bad and Little Red” made specially for this issue of &Stitches. There are also some wonderful patterns by Nicole and Carina and a couple of 'how to's”.
I'm dying to try the Turkey stitch, I love the texture that it creates.
I already got my copy! I could go on and on with all the projects and interviews in this e-zine, but it will make a very long post, and I just can't give it all out. Still, what I can do is give you a copy of this month issue. Yes! Nicole and Carina (or Carina and Nicole) are giving away one copy of this issue right here at Three Kitchen Fairies. You just have to comment in this post letting me know you want to enter this giveaway. I'll leave this giveaway open for one week.
Thanks to the lovely girls at &Stitches e-zine for sharing this load of stitchery goodness with us!
Una de las revistas virtuales que más me gusta de las que han salido este año es &Stitches e-zine. La escriben Nicole Vos van Avezathe y Carina Envoldsen-Harris en Holanda e Inglaterra respectivamente. Esta revista virtual es acerca de bordado moderno sin dejar de lado el bordado tradicional.
El último ejemplar (el cual ya está disponible) es todo acerca de libros, historias, y bordados de letras. Incluye también un reportaje acerca de la talentosa Cate Anevski y sus bordados, quien compartió un set de hermosos patrones hecho especialmente para este ejemplar. También están incluidos dos hermosos patrones por Nicole y Carina, un par de tutoriales y muchas cosas más ;)
Muero de ganas de intentar el “Turkey Stitch”. La verdad no se como se traduzca pero lo que si se es que me encanta la textura lograda en este bordado.
Yo ya tengo mi ejemplar! Podría seguir contándoles acerca de todo lo que trae, pero este post saldría larguísimo y tampoco les puedo decir todo lo que incluye la revista. Lo que si puedo hacer, es sortear una copia del ejemplar de este mes, cortesía de Nicole y Carina (o Carina y Nicole) quienes ofrecen este regalo a las lectoras de Three Kitchen Fairies. Si quiere ganarse una copia solo déjemne un comentario. Este sorteo quedará abierto por una semana.
Gracias a las chicas encantadoras de &Stitches e-zine por compartir la alegría de bordar con nosotros.

I love Big Bad and Red. I would love to stitch Big Bad and add a mane to him as one of our favourite books features a lion. What a great sounding magazine, I will definitely be adding this to my wishlist.
Thanks for sharing.
