Description
January has a quiet kind of beauty. After all the Christmas activity the pace of life slows, the air turns crisp, and our homes are at the heart of everything we do. In this issue we’re celebrating the comfort and creativity that make winter such a rewarding time for makers. January is the perfect moment to rediscover the simple joy of making something beautiful at your own pace and between the covers you’ll find a variety of projects that I hope will inspire you. As well as the patterns, you’ll discover articles on Evelyn Dunbar – the only paid female war artist in the UK, becoming a confident stitcher, unlocking the mysteries of hand needles and much more besides.
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.
