Our crafty chums in North America, Australia and New Zealand are enjoying Mother's Day today, hooray for mums! To celebrate, we wanted to share a link to one of our favourite floral-themed tutorials - easy ribbon roses. These quick blooms look great on all kinds of cards, and they're so easy to make.

Today's how Tuesday is dedicated to all those of you who love to sew and quilt. Whether you've always fancied giving quilting a go or are looking for tips on how to step it up a notch & go freehand - we've found the perfect place to get advice - The Free Motion Quilting Project.

Creator Leah Day has set up a Free Motion Quiltalong as a way of sharing her love of freehand quilting with others. Once a week she posts a new video tutorial - free for everyone to try - and then invites you to share a link to your progress...

Usually our Tuesday tutorial focuses something fun to make - but this week we thought we'd mix things up a bit and share this nifty online tutorial for all those of you who take photos of your craft projects. We know there are loads of you who share what you're making on your blog, with friends on Facebook, or perhaps even selling in an Etsy store. Read more to find out how it's done...

Our new Simply Stitches series shows you how to give your garments all sorts of wonderul knitted effects - from cables to lace and (my favourite-sounding) - cluster & puff crochet!
