Heralding the warm, sun-kissed months that bring colour to gardens and meadows, Inspirations issue 113 showcases beautiful designs from wildflowers scattered across a meadow and a tree of life set amongst alpine peaks to an ordered garden in counted work or a single, beautifully rendered rose in silk and goldwork. Also enjoy feature articles by Ansie van der Walt including: Shades of Gold with Katherine Diuguid, On the Street with Victoria Villasana and In Profile - Hanny Newton.
