The 20th of March officially marks the first day of Spring! Spring is a beautiful time of year, plants and flowers are blooming again, the days are getting longer and the world feels like it’s waking up from a winter slumber. For DIY, Spring is an equally inspirational time of year. We picked out our favourite easy to follow crafting patterns from independent designers, from knitting and sewing to embroidery and quilting. We hope that you find your next project! Already started your Spring project? We want to see your work in progress on Instagram!
