Craft Focus - Apr/May (Issue 72)
5 EDITOR’S LETTER On the cover Crafter’s Companion’s new Spectrum Noir markers will be taking centre stage at Stationery Show London this month. Available in 72 colours, these precision pens allow enthusiasts of all abilities to blend like a pro. Go to crafterscompanion. co.uk for details. What’s new? You may notice something a little different in this issue – we’ve had a makeover! Over the past few months we’ve been inspired by the amazing products currently hitting the market, so we thought it was about time to give Craft Focus a brand-new look for our April/May issue. Our talented team has been working hard behind the scenes to freshen things up, with a contemporary layout to suit this fast-paced, dynamic industry. We hope you love it as much as we do. Inside, you’ll find an inspiring mix of products, interviews and business advice, including a look at the best of British design, the latest needlecraft kits and some brilliant Father’s Day ideas. There’s also a full report from CHSI Stitches, featuring an exclusive interview with Linda Jones, author of the Craft Report, who shares her thoughts on this ground- breaking piece of research.
