I should deserve to win this because my son started school in September and all the mums seem to make this and that and I have never made anything, so I am determined I am going to make something in time for the school xmas fete!!
Hey! This looks just what I need to inspire me to use the stack of craft materials that are waiting for me in the spare room. Please please let me have the book so I can make Hey snuggly indoors whilst the stormy wind blows and the rain batters the windows!
Winning this book would be an excellent excuse for an extended tea & cake break!
The cover just asks for the book to be opened – when I’ve had a chance to look at a copy I’ve a feeling it will be one for my blog.
I’d love to win the book, looks great. Why I’d like to win? love trying out new projects and crafts.
This book should be mine coz making the most out of everything is what I love to do best! x
I’d love to win – I need inspiration and think that this would be superb to work on projects with my crafty girls!
I’d love to win, I say with a grin, as I’m rather fond of needle and pin.
Oh so much I love to make, at least while little bundle isn’t awake.
It’s a service to womankind in letting me win, as crafting keeps my hands out of the biscuit tin!
Wow this book looks amazing! I’d really love to win this, I haven’t had a new pattern book in ages and could really use the inspiration! 🙂
I’d love to win this as I am a full time carer and need lots more things to keep me occupied in the day between duties!
I need this book in my life 😀 You’d think that as an illustrator, doodling all day would leave me all “creativiti-eed out” when the evening rolls around- BUT I find the best therapy after a busy day of creating in 2D is to MAKE something 3D and this book would be the perfect source of inspiration! Craft=Happiness. Ooooh! I’m crossing my fingers and toes!
would love to win this for my friend who is always making lovely things to give away to her friends
Please pick me for this lovely book. I love your blog and I avidly follow you on twitter – thanks for all the lovely inspiration. As a fellow crafter, I value the importance of our lively warm crafting community in the uk. I would love this book to keep my creative hands busy whilst I mend my bad back. We are expecting a baby in March and all the lovely ideas will keep me well prepared for a homemade Christmas and the arrival of our first long awaited little addition. Thanks, From Britain with Love!
I would love to win this, because I have 5 children who I teach at home. This would be a great way to get their interest in crafts stimulated, and it would introduce them to a wide variety which they can take into their adult life and pass onto their own children in due course!
What a lovely book. I’d have a go at a bicycle seat cover for my newly acquired bike my neighbour was throwing away – what a nice addition to a secondhand bike, that’s why I’d love to win a copy xx
I’ve been staying at my grans house for a year to save some much needed money. Since I moved in I’ve discovered a love of handmade things. I’m trying to be creative and I would live to win this book to help me be inspired. My gran has loved me staying with her and we make lots of things together.
I think I would jump up and down with joy if I were to win this. I’ve always been a sewer but this book would help me expand my creativity in all sorts of different ways!

It should be mine as I have just taken the plunge and left my job in pursuit of a dream to make for a living. An inspiration that is out there I am soaking up at the moment! Thanks for the opportunity! 😀
