To win one of five copies of the latest mixtape zine issue answer this question in the comments here.
Q. If you are making your own mixed tape of crafty goodness, what two things might be on it? (Question is completely open to interpretation eg: could be your favourite songs to craft to or favourite mixture of crafty delights.) [comp open for 2 days]
Love the new full cover issue of Mixtape zine. Sadly saying goodbye to Nikki as she busies herself with her many other projects.

and
2. A long phone call with a good friend (husband or otherwise) before getting crafty :)

First, Linford Detweiler’s amazing, surreal piano music- I listened to that while freehand drawing clouds on my artroom ceiling and it is so tranquil.
And fine, fine, dark chocolate. The finest, and best I can find.
