Today... as some of you who follow my Facebook / twitter ramblings will know is the day that I spilling the beans on some exciting news for Girlybunches!
In April I was contacted by a lovely lady who works for Simply Knitting magazine.. Simply Knitting you say.. ? That's a knitting magazine you say, well yes you would be right but they are doing one off crochet special!!!!

As part of the one off special they are doing a Granny Square special...

They asked me... Girlybunches (EK) if I would mind them using my Granny Lampshade as part of their Granny Square special!!...?? Do I mind? Heck No!! :D Girlybunches's Lampshade is rocking the charts at number 11!!! Get'in!!!

So today peeps.. Girlybunches is a published Crochet-er... WAHoo... (can I get a Heck Yeah) I'm rather chuffed to say the least, rest assured I will be raiding the shelves of every newsagents until I find me a copy!!! So happy to be included in such a magazine with lots of other lovely talented works. I am not sure if you can get this on the iPad / other great tablets.. but I think most newsagents will be stocking it.. so buy buy buy guys and gals.. who knows if it's popular then they might do more than a one off special.. I for one would like to see another crochet magazine to choose from.

DeleteI ran into your page while looking for more information on the Simply Crochet magazine, and I love the stuff you are creating! I tried to "Like" you on Facebook, but the link only led me to my homepage and a search of Facebook did not find you. Not sure if it is a USA vs. UK thing (I'm in the US), but I thought I'd let you know. I hope I can find the magazine in a store here, too!
ReplyDeleteHi there, thank you for your kind words.. I just checked it, and it worked for me.. I guess you're right it must be a UK v's USA thing!! How silly! he he... try this link https://www.facebook.com/girlybunches or type it in the address bar of your browser... Thank you for stopping by my little blog.. Love your Angry Birds! :D I think the magazine might might be available from the Apple Newstand? Not sure if that helps you? Thanks again x
DeleteI would love to get this magazine, but live fairly rural so not available in local newsagent and nor is it in the nearby market town. I would have like to buy it online, which is how I buy most craft mags these days, but even that doesn't seem to be an option. Can you help?
ReplyDeleteThis is brilliant!
ReplyDeleteYou are ever so talented - I have the coasters to prove it! : ) xx
