The Scrap Basket 2023 Top 10

As usual, the "Worth A Read" sections of this year's The Scrap Basket newsletters were consistently mentioned as something readers enjoyed. Gathering potential links throughout the weeks prior to an issue, I include anything and everything that I think would be of interest to creatives. I enjoy going back through all of the year's issues to see what were the most popular links. Enjoy!

Well I was kind of surprised to see consistent themes in the most read links, were you? Scraps - both using and organizing them - and minimalism. As much as we all like new fabric, being conscious of what we already have - and using it - are still important focuses. I expect finding that balance will continue to be something we prioritize.
