Winners of Crafty Girls Talk

Last week I had two copies of Crafty Girls Talk by Jennifer Forest to give away to Craft Gossip readers – one in printed format and one in a Kindle format. (Check out my review of the book here.)

Crafty Girls Talk is a book of interviews with creatively employed women. Part of the entry into the giveaway was to tell the question you’d most like to ask someone who has built a business around their craft. Well…. Jennifer Forest, the book’s author, was so impressed with the questions you asked that she is taking the time to answer some of them on her blog, Work Women Want. The first question she addresses is about the timing and quantity of inventory you should purchase. Go to her post to see her answer.

And now… the winners!!

The winner of the printed copy is commenter #36, Penny, who said:

I would love to learn how to attract investors. I have owned my own business before and continued to work full time … not enough hours in the day! My dream is to open a craft supplies business in my area. I’d love a paper copy, please and thanks for the chance to win. Blessings to All!

And the winner of the Kindle version is commenter #102, Reine, who said:

I would like to ask them how they found the courage to believe in themselves. I would like to enter for both editions, paper & Kindle as I’d be rapt to win either!

Congrats to both of you!

There’s a reason wrap skirts never go out of style — they’re flattering, feminine, and fabulously versatile. Whether you’re heading out to brunch, running errands, or planning a weekend at the beach, a wrap skirt is the kind of staple that can be dressed up or down in an instant.

As someone who lives in handmade clothes and loves a sewing project with instant gratification, I’ve fallen hard for the wrap skirt trend. Not only are wrap skirts ridiculously easy to sew (most don’t even require zippers or buttons!), but they’re also forgiving in fit and perfect for all seasons. Pair them with sandals in summer, boots in fall, or even tights in winter — these skirts work overtime in your wardrobe.

In this roundup, I’ve gathered 25 of the best wrap skirt sewing patterns and tutorials — from breezy boho styles and beachy sarongs to structured midi lengths and classic A-lines. Whether you’re working with linen, cotton, rayon, or even upcycling old bedsheets (yes, that’s a thing and it looks amazing!), there’s a wrap skirt here for every vibe and every skill level.
