It's here and I can't wait for you to try it! 🎉


Hello Reader,

I hope you are well.

Today I am super excited to share with you a macrame quiz I have created for you!

I love quizzes since I was little and they used to be the first thing I looked for in a magazine.

We all want to know a little more about ourselves!

So the past few months I took a course about quizzes, designed, build and created the first macrame quiz in the world, as far as I know, to match the macrame project to your skill level! But there is more!!! From your macrame superpower to your macrame playlist!

It's free, fun and takes only 2 minutes!

Last week many of you helped me pick the front image- thank you- and now it's ready for you to try!

Before I share the link.......please don't forget to share your result with me and any Macrame friends- just forward them this email.

My wish is for you to enjoy the quiz, the result I tailored for you and most of all your macrame journey.


I have received my copy of my new book: Macrame Christmas- 24 festive projects and I am sharing it with you, before anybody else, what's inside! Watch the video below!

PRE-ORDER your book here (UK) or on Amazon in your country.

My wishes and prayers every single day is for peace. I felt hopeless and heartbroken. Then yesterday evening, as I was teaching macrame jewellery for three hours at my local College for Adults, finally my frustration and hopeless were replaced with creativity, human connections, mindfulness, purpose...

Hello Reader, I hope you are well. On Tuesday I was in London to host a mini-retreat with 4 other incredible women. We started with a cacao ceremony, followed by a break nourishing ourselves with plant-based food and finally an 'awaken your creativity' with the art of knotting' session. We created a safe space and within this beautiful container we were able to talk and release many emotions, the tears I shed were much needed and it was magical to be able to share them within the group and...
