Good evening ladies.

I am thinking of starting crafting - I would love to se able to sew things, do things with the little ones, make things for their room like name bunting'and'prints for their walls etc.

But, and this is a big but, I am an absolute beginner. I mean totally.

I am going to get my mother to give me a tutorial on her Singrr so that I can see if I like it. But it's the other hand made stuff i,'d love to be able to do.

Any book reccies?

TIA x

Tbh I'd have a look at craft magazines as they will allow you to dabble a bit more?

Mollie Makes, Handmade Living are general craft mags I like, or buy a selection of specialised ones :)

Have you tried your library?

Our library, even though it is quite small, has a good selection of craft books.
