The first project is one which was teased last month and submitted by the ever popular designer Judith Maslen. Entitled The Wise Old Bird, her traditionally worked card piece features white worked detailing in the centre with the most simplest of borders. 

If you're looking to produce a piece of work which will raise eyebrows, you've definitely got to try your hand at Mary G Kerr's ensemble on page 14. As seen on the cover, there are two slight variations from the same pattern with one design suited far a beginner, the other a bit more complicated, requiring a bit more time too. 

As always, we have our bonus patterns page, which in this issue boasts a selection of 'masculine themed patterns'.
