March brings the start of spring, which means the return of colour - to the countryside, our gardens and our imaginations. There's a reason this month inspires us to transform our homes with a spring clean and fresh furnishings. To bring flowers in or create pretty things for the table. Easter is around the corner and it's time to celebrate!

I don't know about you, but I spend the winter longing for the return of  lighter, warmer evenings so that I can get out into the hills and go wildlife spotting! Katie loves to wander through antique markets or go mudlarking in the Thames. And, as there seems to be so much more time in the day, we both find we have the energy for new projects after we get home from the studio. 
 
If, like us, you're keen to get creative this month, check out our new Easter needle-felting kits - a pair of cute fuzzy ducklings and some spring lambs! Or visit the digital download section of our shop for a quick make idea. Talking of which, I have spent the last week or so reorganising the shop. It needs a total overhaul but, for now, I hope it works a little better. Please let me know if you have any problems!

March is packed with two big craft events for Bergin & Bath. Next week we are in Birmingham at the Creative Craft Show and then the follwoing week is the Stitch Festival in London. See our newsletter for discount codes and ticket info.
