| Hannah Bellis - Editor |
|
Hello, I'm the Editor of The World of Cross Stitching. I've been into stitching for as long as I can remember, and I've worked on cross stitch magazines for the last 5 years. Blackwork and gold work are particular favourites, and I love experimenting with new speciality stitches to produce different effects and patterns. I prefer to tackle large projects and my greatest stitching achievement was finishing off all of my unfinished projects in 2006. My ambition is to stitch a storage chest and keep all my threads safe and ordered inside it.

I'm Poppy, the Production Editor on The World of Cross Stitching. I've always loved crafts, and in particular stitching, so I'm really lucky to be able to enjoy one of my hobbies as part of my job. I love getting letters and emails from all our readers and hearing about their latest work. It's great to see what they've been stitching as it gives us an idea of the kinds of projects people want to stitch! |

Hello, I'm the Deputy Production Editor on The World of Cross Stitching. I'm a relative newcomer to cross stitching, but I've always loved craft. In the past I've enjoyed knitting, quilting and embroidering, and I made a large oriental inspired quilt for my bed that I'm particularly proud of. I love making my own cards, whatever the occasion, and I'm looking forward to learning more about cross stitching, particularly designs which incorporate beading.

Hi, I'm Sue and I'm the Consultant Art Editor on The World of Cross Stitching. I'm a passionate crafter, particularly well known for my love of knitting and creating cuddly toy characters from pairs of socks. My favourite designs use speciality threads, especially hand dyed silks, and I love the different effects produced with variegated threads and fabrics. I take great pride in my attention to detail, and my friends say I'm a real perfectionist. My greatest crafting achievement was making my own felt, and I'd love to dye my own threads and wool one day too. |

Hi, I'm Lisa and I'm the Art Assistant on The World of Cross Stitching.
I've never stitched before, but I'm looking forward to getting to grips with some small designs and working my way up to more ambitious projects. In the past I've made a lot of textile projects for my home, including some tie dye blankets and some lovely cushion covers using tea towels and other scraps.
My favourite thing about my job is creating all the photographs for the magazine and make sure that each piece of stitching looks its very best. |

Anne MacGregor - Senior Technical Editor |

I am Senior Technical Editor on 'The World of Cross Stitching' and I am responsible for ensuring that all the charts, keys and technical information given on the pages is accurate. The projects are a mixture in size and style and it is always a challenge for me to find different ways of making up the designs. |
