bought the magazine today and really enjoyed giving it a read.
I thought the articles were really interesting an d will be buying it again!
However i found that some of the instructions were a little hazy, esp the seat covering article. I am relatively inexperienced at crafting, so need a few more pictures and instructions, im in no way asking you to dumb it down, just go into abit more detail. for example, ive guessed what wadding is, but what material is it? where do i get it? and how much do i need?

Hi, yes more detail on where to get the stuff required for projects would be great, perhaps this could be put on the website so there is still room in the mag for all those great projests and articals that are inspriring us all so much. If you go to a good fabric shop, they should be able to help with the wadding, but finding a good fabric shop round here is a bit like a needle in a haystack!
Good luck with the project.

For fabric try on-line at www.terrysfabrics.co.uk
They have shops in Stoke on Trent and Stockport. I used to live in Stoke and went there all the time. I was really disappointed when I moved, then I discovered that they have an amazing on line shop! So now I'm in Surrey and can still buy everything I need from them. Delivery is super quick too. Oh and if anyone else is wondering about wadding, it's the stuff that looks like lots of tiny fibers stuck together, comes at a sheet on a roll like material and you buy it in the same widths as fabric. It's usually white and comes in different thicknesses and it adds padding to anything you need. I use it when making padded quilts or as lining for jackets that require slight padding.

Yep, more step by step photos would really help. I noticed there wasn't much in the way of illustrative pics in the latest issue for the bracelet.
