Paula Milner is a blogger, tutor, illustrator and fabric designer. Her fabric ranges with the Craft Cotton Co can be found in shops across the UK. She enjoys drawing, sewing, quilting and paper flower making. She is a brand ambassador for Brother Sewing Machines, a Cricut Ambassador and Design Space Contributing Artist, and author of Simple Paper Flowers and Cricut Craft published by GMC Publications. Her aim is to make craft accessible to all. She wants people to get making, creating, and inspiring themselves and others.

An outstanding first book from ‘The Crafty Lass’ Paula Milner. Paula’s style is so warm and positive I feel like a friend is gently guiding me through the process. The quality of paper and magnificent photographs - along with the clarity and simplicity of her instructions - are first-rate, with the finished flowers being wonderfully inventive and also very authentic. I have never been so excited by crepe paper, wire and a glue gun - just longing to get started!
