Makers Academy Spotlight This week, Makers Academy member Kris N. shared her beautiful twist on our Floral Mandala pattern 🌸 She said: "Love how this turned out on the dark fabric. It was definitely a much-needed #mindfulnesschallenge to work on this one." We're loving the way the colours pop on that dark fabric - how about you? Hit reply and tell us if you'd be keen to see a kit featuring darker fabric in the future! JOIN THE MAKERS ACADEMY

In Our World This week I've been working on a really cute upcoming pattern with a marine life theme. We considered a whale, dolphin and a turtle at first, but have refined it down to a beautiful turtle with soft floral details, gliding through the water with bubbles trailing behind it. I can't wait to share more once it's ready!   I've also been working on a really exciting upcoming guest pattern that features thread painting. So if you're one of our members who's been keen to dive deeper into the world of thread painting, we've got something special coming your way soon.   And lastly, we've been working through the applicants for our new Embroidery Content Creator role, which has been so exciting. If you've been thinking about applying, now is your absolute last chance. Click here for more information.   With the kids back at school here in New Zealand, I'm also looking forward to giving Clever Poppy my full attention during the day again - how fun!   Have a wonderful week, and happy stitching 💛🧵✨
