The Birmingham Young Embroiderers Workshops is a 'how to do it' feature, with lots of ideas to inspire you to get dyeing and stitching.

Have a look at Tex's Guide to Stitching! Tex has been getting to grips with backstitch, couching and quilting, and he wants to show his friends what he's been up to.

If you try any of the projects, we'd love to hear how you get on.
