Homespun magazine - The international success story that’s put Australian craft on the map and bridged the gap between classic crafting and contemporary edge. Each monthly issue brings inspiration, ideas and step-by-step projects from the world’s best. First launched in 2000, Homespun was redesigned and relaunched in 2013 to bring a more modern approach to textile crafts. New graphics and the perfect blend of contemporary and traditional projects spelt instant success and landed Homespun two major publishing awards. The fresh-look Homespun appeals to a huge and eager audience, including the new wave of young crafters keen for ideas-driven ingenuity as well as traditional stitchers, who have grown to value the quality and accuracy of this well-respected publication. Homespun’s motto is “Your Heart in Your Hands”. And that just about sums it up! For our Privacy Policy and Terms and Conditions, visit www.homespun.net.au

Meet Laura Veenema

Laura Veenema’s passion for quilting has inspired vibrant, patchwork designs that are built for children’s adventures. Reflecting her love of jewel tones, her creative approach to education and her desire to create beauty from broken pieces, Laura’s improvisational quilting method is spontaneous and liberating.

Inspired by her background as a classroom teacher and reading specialist, she was forced to quit her job after a health crisis. Now, she prioritises accessibility and creative flair in her custom quilt business, New Song Quilting, and her published craft books.
