Joan Elliott's Spring Goddess is taking centre stage this month with her beautiful crown of daffodils and violets, but there's a colourful owl cushion for those who fancy a fun stitch to kick-start spring...

It may be gloomy outside, but you can dream of sunshine to come thanks to Lesley Teare's blooming daffodils in Cross Stitch Collection's February issue (on sale 18 January).
