This week:





Knitting and Stitching Show

Josie's stuff!

£3 for 3 issues of Mollie Makes when you subscribe, and this free tote bag! We couldn't resist.

'Fat Quarters' Josie's Picks

Josie: I also attended a workshop with Make Do and Mend called 'Drawing in Stitches'. We used scraps of fabric and appliqued them onto a plain piece of fabric to create a picture. They usually use machines to do the stitching which is faster, but we used simple hand stitching for this, so this is as far as I got. I went for a very simple design of a gift, but I am definitely going to use this technique in the future to make embroidery pieces.                      

Laura's goodies...

I couldn't resist the £3 for 3 months so I subscribed to simply knitting magazine :)


My rotary roller and mat so I have no excuse not to start quilting now 


Fat quarters obsession- the top 3 fat quarters were £1.50 each and the other 6 were 6 for £10


This is an amazing bag of goodies which was £5...


 and look at all these fabric scraps... imagine the possibilities!!
                                                                                                         


Joey's Haul! We all went a bit fabric crazy me thinks. It was very hard to resist because there were loads of beautiful fabrics! 






I plan on making pencil cases and maybe little coin purses with these. Keep looking out for them!

Blog Launch: Who We Are!

Good day people! This is a fun little post so that you can get to know a little bit about us. We're three friends who all share the love of craft. We've all written a little bit about ourselves and then we've answered some fun interview questions. We pass these questions on to you too! Feel free to comment with who you are and tell us about your business or blog if you have one. It's possible you could be one of our future showcases!

Hi I'm Laura Bee! My name came about because I always always have a bee in my bonnet. Once I get an idea it's all I can picture. I love to do all things crafty. I sew, knit, crochet, scrapbook, cook and I started a Filofax this year. My new hobby this year is up-cycling- I have few projects in store so keep checking back.

Hi I'm Josie, red-head Londoner with 2 cats. I started cross stitching around 6 years ago and haven't stopped! I also make jewellery and crochet, and hope to start making my own clothes which may be a struggle as me and my sewing machine don't always get on. I am fairly disorganised and scatty, so my Filofax helps keep me in check! Josie Makes xxx

Hullo! Joey here! I am a self taught crocheter and cross stitcher. I always loved arts and crafts and I always need to be doing something different. Last year I started scrapbooking and love it so much. I'm an avid pen paller and have lots of papercraft projects in the works. I'm also a Filofax planner who is obsessed with stationery! SoJoey x
