NEW ARRIVALS
Fluffing Fabulous Crafty Finds
Welcome to Gilliangladrag. Fluff is our religion. And here is what we believe:
1. We believe making stuff makes you happy :-)
2. We believe that there's no such thing as too much wool. That's definitely not a thing.
3. We believe in an inspirational 'stash' & craft cupboard. That is the root of all creative possibility & satisfaction, and well, if you've got that, then you must be doing something right.
4. We believe you have the right to add as many pompoms & tassels as you want. Decoration is life.
5. We believe in fluffy stuff. Both physically and metaphoricafluffilly.
6. And we believe in our Grandmas - they led the way and taught us what we know; we are but revolutionaries knitting, crocheting, felting, weaving and stitching with neon pink & adding more pompoms than is normal...
Crochet-A-Cardigan Club
Fancy crocheting this rather gorgeous, warm and woolly cardigan with these fabulous balloon sleeves and sweet heart pockets? Just buy this downloadable pattern AND the yarn for it from us, and we will add you to our special 'Crochet Cardigan Facebook Group' where you will all be able to ask each other questions, help each other along- plus we will also be adding top tips and a few 'how to' videos.
Courses & Workshops
At the moment our Creative Courses are on hold due to Covid. Instead please check out our FREE Gilliangladrag Tutorials on YouTube.
Normally we inspire you & teach you more - from Felting, Weaving, Macrame, Knitting, Crochet, Spinning, Dyeing and more! Our inspirational studio will give you more than just a really fun day out - you'll learn something new too! {And if you live too far away - we now offer some ONLINE courses too!}

How to make a Face Mask : Minimal sew : Easy peasy!
Finally it's obligatory to wear a face mask in enclosed spaces here in the UK - so why not make a few? Remember wearing a mask is like wearing underwear - they need to be washed after each wear :-) This is a super easy, minimal sew 'how to' make a face mask which is 2 layers thick with an opening for a filter; option for nose wire, and the option to make it water resistant too!
Quick Guide to Needle Felting 3D Shapes
One of THE most important things about needle felting 3D shapes is the way you 'wrap up' the merino wool tops you're working with. It's IMPERATIVE to get as much of the 'air' out of it as possible when you are creating a little shape. I don't use a different core wool, or anything inside, - I simply needle felt the merino wool tops into the shape I need...
Here's my quick and simple guide to needle felting 3D shapes, which accompanies my recent free live tutorial on YouTube.
