Pip Lincolne

Craft author Pip Lincolne grew up in a DIY family. Her dad sewed her lovely dresses; her mum made her orange sorbet; her brother fashioned little houses for her dolls; her sister drew and her nanna knitted, sewed, baked ... you name it! Raised on such handmade fare, there was never any doubt that a crafty life lay ahead.

Pip lives above her popular craft store Meet Me at Mikes, in Melbourne’s Fitzroy, with her lovely family. She runs Brown Owls – a new-fangled craft club for crafters of all ages and makes things every single day. Pip is also the proud owner of a fabulous and popular blog http://meetmeatmikes.blogspot.com . Her first book, Meet Me at Mike’s, was published in 2009. Her second book, Sew La Tea Do in 2010 and Make Hey While the Sun Shines was published in October 2011.
