As Christmas approaches and orders for custom stockings fly in, The Cross have written a feature piece on Shirley McLauchlan and her work. Read the piece on their website here, and make sure to take a look at all of the new designs Shirley has been working on recently.

Shirley McLauchlan is a longtime and much adored collaborator of the Cross. Her intricate embroidery and use of both pattern and colour come together to make the most magical of creations. A textile by Shirley is a forever piece, once owned, it is always treasured. Cross owner, Sam, has a collection of Shirley pieces from blankets to cushions, with her children's names adorned. Each piece, a treasure and memory marker. 

Shirley's new stocking, pillow, and dressing gown designs are avaliable to purchase from The Cross or within the 'Order' section of this website.
