Anyone making anything in suffragette colours? I'd love to make a scarf but my knitting skills are sadly lacking and I'd want it quickly not by next summer Grin
I already have a handmade bracelet I made last weekend with my daughters with embroidery silks. They each made one too. A cheap and cheerful Sunday afternoon activity Smile
I've just ordered some Swarovski beads off eBay to make a necklace or bracelet that's a little fancier than the other one.
My girls are eager to make things too so am after ideas for things that are relatively cheap, easy and fun to make.
Anyone got any good ideas?

(Apologies as think there's a similar thread about colours but couldn't find it and not sure it was specifically craft related.)

Actually I think I just found it at the Great British Baby Company unfortunately the large sizes are sold out. Any other suppliers?

Someone linked to a Suffragette college scarf, it was for children but the largest size was great for women. If you find it can you link again ?

I've just decided to plant my spring flowers using purple and white bulbs. The leaves will provide the green. Suffragette garden! I've got two planters either side of the front door which will look fab with purple and white tulips. Garden centre here I come!

Crochet? I have to confess I haven't done any for years, but I found it easier than knitting. If you make a mistake, it's much easier to backtrack and pick it up again, iyswim.

Nice bracelet!
