Welcome to issue 25 of CraftWorld Magazine, the only magazine dedicated to bringing free inspiration to sewists, papercrafters, knitters and crocheters every single month!

This issue is packed with projects you’ll love to make, including a puff-sleeve masterclass (page 8), Sent With Love makes (page 16), a fab Seeing squares cushion (page 20), some beautiful die-cut designs (page 30) and stunning daisy creations (page 59). We have makes for all skill levels, each one designed to brighten your summer.

If you’d rather just sit back with a cup of tea and a slice of cake and have a good read, there’s plenty to choose from too. I loved reading about size inclusivity (page 11). And don’t miss our winners of the Cardmaker of the Year 2023 competition (page 36).

I hope you enjoy this issue, and if you do, please share it with your friends!

Happy crafting,
Jenn x
