We're massive fans of the show, so we were thrilled to have the opportunity to chat about the Throwdown and all things clay-related with Keith.

Projects of the week

Sarah and Zoe are on the same wavelength this week, because they've both chosen cushion projects!

Zoe is making a sausage dog cushion as a gift for her daughter to brighten up her new bedroom when they move house. Meanwhile, Sarah's feeling inspired by Rebecca Reid's star cushion pattern from Simply Sewing magazine.

We promised you a link to Keith's parody of the Adele song Rolling In The Deep in the episode, so here it is!
