Week Commencing 22nd July 2025
Another week of sparkle-fuelled chaos, poignant projects, studio pets in hats, and enough crafty brilliance to make a glitter cannon blush. Points have been tallied, giggles noted, and heartfelt posts cherished. Ready? Let’s go.
🌟 Top Sparklers of the Week! 🌟
🔻 Linda – “The Guild’s Glass Gladiator”
For waking up at 5am, soldering like a legend, framing on the fly, and delivering a breathtaking stained glass exhibition piece and sharing it via video later. Honestly, how is she not a superhero?
🔻 Elizabeth – “The Heartmaker”
For filling our week with handknitted love and healing, Elizabeth’s hospice hearts touched the whole Guild. Quietly powerful, deeply heartfelt, and utterly worthy of a spotlight.
🔻 Kath – “Queen of Colour, Chaos, and Crafting”
For dazzling us with safari appliqué animals, baby book beginnings, and finding the brightest fabric in the Western Hemisphere. We’re still blinking.
✨ Special Mentions This Week ✨
🔸 Fran – For floral production lines, newsletter milestones, and studio pet hats. Also for being powered entirely by quiet energy and cheeky emojis.
🔸 Joanna – For everything from red kites to relaxed dogs and always diving into the Guild energy with both feet (and likely thread in her hair).
🔸 Simone – For launching Stitch of Wit with humour and sparkle, and spreading that post like the pro she is.
🔸 Gill – For British skin vs. American heat and delivering laughter alongside lawnmowing and biscuit-making cats
