Critter & Clover Book by Sue Spargo

A little woodland world, brought to life with your stitches.

Settle in with Critter & Clover by Sue Spargo and enjoy getting to know nine characterful little creatures, with smaller friends tucked into the scene around them. Wool appliqué, layered fabrics and embroidered details turn this compact quilt into a piece full of colour and texture.

There is plenty to enjoy up close: the shape of a leaf, a tiny visitor in the background, or the stitches that give each animal its personality. Work on a little section at a time and take pleasure in seeing the whole woodland scene come together.

Enjoy the making as much as the finished piece

Project instructions, pattern layouts and stitch diagrams guide you through wool and cotton appliqué, layering and decorative embroidery. Dimensional stitching adds further texture, giving you opportunities to explore different effects as you work.

The finished quilt measures 23½ × 23½ inches (approximately 60 × 60 cm), making it a lovely wall hanging for a sewing space or a thoughtful handmade gift for someone who loves woodland animals.

A useful extra for your stitching corner

The book also includes the Woodland Workbox pattern—another project to enjoy alongside your quilt.
