Welcome to the June/July issue of Craft Business. This month, we caught up with Kaffe Fassett, who is celebrating 50 successful years in the textile design business – see p 14.

Also in this issue, we examine the huge success of adult colouring books, which have fast become the top trend in mindfulness and well-being, on p 10. Sarah Hurley looks at the increasing popularity of the die cutting market on p 8, showing how the latest innovations offer crafters more versatility.

On p 20, we look back at the success of this year's Yarn Shop Day, plus we have a sneak preview of the new Sew Saturday campaign to boost the profile of the UK's sewing shops in October. Knitting retailers will also be excited to learn that the British Knitting Awards are back for 2015 – we reveal more on p 22.

We look at why it is important to stock sewing patterns and reveal the latest trends on p16, plus there's advice on how to entice jewellery makers to try precious metal products on p 27. Then on p 29, the experts explain why icing remains a vital ingredient in the sugarcraft sector.

Craft Business is more than just a B2B magazine; it is an industry institution that for more than 12 years has uncovered the latest trade launches and sales trends, while offering business advice aimed directly at the specialist craft and hobby retailer.

Published eight times a year and supported by our popular online resource, CraftBusiness.com – the magazine covers all markets relevant to its readership including papercraft; stitching and haberdashery; jewellery and beading; knitting; general arts and crafts; and media, digital and online information.

Drawing on the experiences of these diverse voices, Craft Business reflects the challenges facing today's craft retailers and offers inspiration, innovation and support for their growth.

In addition to the magazine, back in 2012 Craft Business was able to take advantage of its position in the market and launched the only annual directory for the Craft & Hobby industry, comprehensively listing companies in the industry in one easy-to-use guide, available in both print and online.
