I got this kit for the little fox brooch from Mollie Makes magazine, my newest favorite.
Mollie Makes features several projects in each issue, and includes a kit for one of them! The magazine is published in Great Britain, so it is full of fun expressions like: "We've always quite fancied..." and words are spelled the British way (of course) - for example: "fibre" and "colour". But besides the British charm, it is chock full of great ideas.
This is going to be my next project - a pretty felt Dala horse. They have an article about a woman who collects wooden Dala horses and talks about their history. So I learned something new! I love working with felt, and Mollie Makes always has a couple of felt projects to work on.
It is pretty spendy, but I am going to ask Santa for a subscription. But, in case you are interested, here is the info about how to subscribe. They carry the magazine at JoAnn Fabric and Crafts as well.
I didn't receive anything from Mollie Makes for this post, but if they want to give me a free subscription for the free publicity, I would accept it (Are you listening, editors? Hint, hint!)!
Linking up to A Bowl Full of Lemons - One Project At A Time and Cozy Little House - Tweak It Tuesday!
I have a couple copies of Mollie Makes on my iPad. I think I need to check out the patterns in them.
ReplyDeleteCute brooch!
ReplyDeleteFancy you not saying "we've always quite fancied"!
What a cute little fox! I should go get a copy of the magazine just so I can see the article on the dala horses. I collect those. I can't wait to see the one you make!
