Plumetis Magazine

October 28, 2011 By Spoonful of Sugar - 6 Comments

We are thrilled to have our Gathered Round Basket tutorial included in the latest issue of Plumetis Magazine. Plumetis is a bimonthly eMagazine which features lots of Cute Crafts and Handmade Gifts. The magazine is in French and features beautiful photography. This issue has plenty of inspiration for Christmas and Seasonal Projects.

I think our Gathered Round Basket sounds so much better in French – Petits Cadeaux pour les Fêtes.

You can find the English instructions for our tutorial here.
We also enjoy reading Sweet Paul which is full of recipes and stunning food photographs, with the odd crafty project and lifestyle article included. Are there any other eMagazines that are must reads? Please leave a note in the comments if there are others that you recommend.

    Thank you for passing on your wisdom too Lisa, regarding social networking – I too am yet to take the plunge in to FB for the same reasons as you deliberated!

Maybe it's just me, but I think every sewist has a Maybe it's just me, but I think every sewist has a piece of fabric they're a little afraid to cut into.

You know the one.

The fabric that's too pretty, too special, or waiting for the perfect project.

I've certainly been guilty of saving beautiful Liberty fabrics for "someday". But over the years I've realised something:

The joy isn't in owning the fabric.

The joy is in turning it into something you'll use, display, gift, or enjoy every day.

Some of my favourite sewing projects began with a Liberty fabric I was hesitant to cut into. Looking back, I've never regretted using it. The only fabrics I've regretted are the ones that sat folded away for years waiting for the perfect moment.

Beautiful fabric deserves to become something beautiful.

✨ What's a fabric you've been saving for a special project?
