I love books, I love magazines, yet I rarely take the time to talk about them here. Today, however I want to share two little gems with you.
The first is a magazine, Living Crafts. A magazine that caters to all areas of natural crafting, the latest issue covers everything from knitting to woodworking. Beautiful projects and patterns (tons of knitting!) make me want to curl up and work on them all day. While not just for the family, I did feel that children and families are heavily considered, at least in this issue.
The other book is Seams to Me by Anna Maria Horner. I’ve always loved her fabric and projects so I expected wonderful patterns
when I ordered this book. BUT, this is also the book I needed when I began sewing. Not only are the patterns beautiful, but the first part of the book is dedicated to sewing basics and the instructions are top notch!

Now if I’d had a book like that back in home ec…..
Oh, thanks for the recs. That sewing book does look interesting. I saw Living Crafts, and wandered if any knitting were included, but didn’t have time to browse. Good to know! : )
Ooooh! Thanks for the recommendations! I love finding new reads…
Did you buy Seams to Me? I still need to check out the Living Crafts mag.
Ooo! I love to check out new books and magazines!
Thanks for the recommendations – I’ve been eyeing Seams to Me for a long time now, and that magazine sounds interesting!
