Question time: Have you tried approaching galleries & shops? What was your experience? What worked and what didn't? If you're a gallery or shop owner, what do you look for?

We'll be chatting more about this in #folksyhour over on Twitter tonight from 8-9pm but we'd love to hear your experiences here too.

Craft went on march today too. Here are some of the protest signs we've seen stitched, knitted, painted, created and shared as part of the Women's March.

To see who made each piece head over to our Instagram post, where the makers are tagged.

Here's something very special. It's a stained glass panel that's been engraved and hand painted by Victoria Collins. The bee in the centre is deeply engraved into a faceted piece of domed amber glass, then surrounded by rays of hand-painted sunflowers. Exquisite.
