Designer Thea Deuck describes this design beautifully:
Beware! This Witch Trio’s spell book contains some really Scary Stitches! When you look in the Needlebook, you’ll practice some of them, like the ‘Whipped Chain Stitch’ and the ‘Diamond Eyeball’ stitches and more! This design will increase your own stitch repertoire, as you learn three pesky knots, some challenging ‘crossed’ stitches, hemstitching, and even the ‘Evil Queen’! The design on the front of the ‘book’ box is fun and colourful, bringing back our Stitchin Witches, as they cackle and stitch some of your favorite evil stitches. Love the pumpkin button on the front, the Satin Stitched sawtooth bands, and the tiny black buttons to match the black creepy spider webs. In this pattern you’ll also find directions to make a Bullion Knot pumpkin for the Scissors Fob, a cute needlebook, and your Stitchin Witch Nametag. I really hope you’ll love this stitched book of “Scary Stitches” -Thea
