Embroidery Magazine Jul/Aug 2025 issue is out now!

A note from the Editor.

Summer is finally here and with our July/August cover showing @rachelsetford Rachel Wright’s swallows joyfully darting across a bright blue sky, we’re in a celebratory mood.

It’s a packed issue, with everything from a look at 150 years of Liberty through its fabrics from author @‌kassiastclair, to how @‌emilyjogibbsis honouring the makers of Trinity Buoy Wharf, and from the return of the @‌stitchbystitch_2025 exhibition to a behind-the-scenes look at the eagerly-anticipated @‌thefestivalofquilts.

We feature work by a diverse group of artists, including @hannahlambtextileartist, @janina.bacchetta, Dr Aimee Rondel, @aranillingworth, @vivienne.beaumont, @katetarlingtextiles, @cathyjackcoupland and @annekellytextiles

We hope you enjoy it!
