Making Stories Magazine Issue 7
Theme: Joy
In this issue, we focus on joy – finding joy in the small and big things in life, in a new discovery or a renewed love, in knowing that even the smallest changes can have a huge impact on sustainability and the planet.
The 12 stunning patterns our designers created all represent something that makes the designer truly happy. They’re love letters to a favourite technique, stitch pattern, garment or accessory type, shape, or colour and the essays we’re so happy to share are love letters to finding joy in stitches and reclaiming what others deem is waste.
