CRAFTY

Crafty is a new publication about sewing andeverything hand-made. It is sold with free calico on the cover. Pretty expensive at £4.99, I found the items to make quite boring, nothing I hadn't seen before, from tote bags to felt toys.

 

However, I thought the article were pretty interesting, especially about copyrighting your creations and how big companies or other crafters steal ideas from blogs and on-line shops like Etsy and reproduce them without consent. Useful tips as how to protect yourself. In effect make sure you copyright your creations, take pictures of everything and e-mail them to yourself once on-line with a date which will prove who created what when. 

I liked the layout and the paper it was printed on. They have an interesting website to visit. www.craftymag.com
