But my tea cosy is just one of an array of great projects in different styles and techniques, from Elisabetta Holzer Spinelli's vibrant biscornu pincushion to Marie-Pierre Théus' stitch-filled linen carry bag to Louise Spriggs' gorgeous contemporary cushion to fellow South African embroiderer Annamaria Kelly's lush silk ribbon work.

The editorial team commissioned stitchery from needlewomen around the world and the result is an issue rich in diversity, so with something for everyone. And a host of unusual stitches as well – Italian pearl and Ferrara stitch in particular have piqued my interest. And of course it's all beautifully laid out, with thoughtfully styled photography. Real eye candy for stitchers.

It's always exciting to see someone I "know" in a magazine. Lovely tea cozy design with a very creative use of stitches.
