What a stitch up
By Clare Kelly
If you're into craft, you'll probably be familiar with The Make Lounge. But if you're not, why not have a virtual visit...www.themakelounge.com It's a great venue but I'm not here to talk about that. I want to talk about craft guerrillas. They are not furry in any way but instead, this group has been set up as the antithesis to mainstream ordered craft.
Expect tattoo felt hearts and 'apple of my eye' magnets. SoupaGirl and I were lucky enough to go to one of the group's events at TML and made each other some cute gifts. Jo is now the proud owner of a fat little apple and she made me a little loveheart. The guerrilla girls were on hand to help out and told us about the regular nights they hold in E17. Not to be mistaken with the Essex Band. Ah, stay another day!
The group have a range of craft packs with step-by-step instructions so there's not much room to go wrong and you get to take the result home. It's the perfect activity if you're a little fickle like me as you're less likely to give up. If you like the sound of it, why not take a little peek at the Craft Guerrilla website http://www.craftguerrilla.com/ and head on down to E17. Chances are, you'll have so much fun you might just want to stay another day...
