Description
Summer is behind us now, but I must admit that as I grow older, autumn has become my favourite
season. I love the gentle fading of the season, leaves changing hue from the dark dusty green of
late summer to the golds, ochres, crimsons and rusts of autumn. September is a month of change,
as the evenings draw in and the schools return, activities begin again in our village hall after the
long summer holidays. We have all kinds of activities, from yoga and table tennis to the history
and gardening societies and of course that mainstay of village halls across the land – the W.I.
There are all kinds of goodies in this month’s edition too, as we discover the life of Annie Garnett,
one of the first female entrepreneurs of the Lake District, learn a little about chikankari, an Indian
form of whitework, and spend some time cooking up a feast in the kitchen too.
The Bustle & Sew Magazine is the work of just one woman, me(!) Helen Grimes, the founder of and creative force behind the Bustle & Sew bunny. So if you’re expecting a glossy high-street, high-budget publication, stuffed with adverts and promotions, then this probably isn’t the magazine for you. But if you’re looking for quirky, unusual and fun sewing projects, all with my unique style, and enjoy filling your home with beautiful ideas, then you’re sure to love the Bustle & Sew Magazine.
Although stitching is very much at the heart of each edition, I also include lots of other articles and features. Seasonal recipes, craft ideas, poetry corner and much more besides, all celebrating life here in the English countryside that combine to make this a totally unique publication!
Don’t forget, you are free to sell items you personally have made from Bustle & Sew patterns. All the templates are included at full size, so there’s no awkward re-sizing – no fiddling around with photocopiers or hanging around at printing shops. You can start creating straight away! I don’t mind if you personally want to make items to sell from my patterns, but you are not licensed to go into mass production.
