I've been sewing, knitting, and crocheting a long time. I love having a hobby that is simple, goes anywhere, and produces something lovely and useful.
Being crafty is way more fun than being a couch potato.

Origami purse
This bag is so much fun to make. And it's easy to make from whatever scraps you have lying around. This is a good use of leftover pieces that are too big to throw away but are not very useful for...
Baby blanket bag
This was my baby blanket. I turned it into a tote bag so I could use it once again. The blanket was a doll applique on pink gingham with a blue border and back. It had yellow squares on the corners...

This book looks fantastic.

Looks like an interesting technique. I hope I win!

This book looks like fun!

This looks like a lot of fun. Now that the kids are big enough, we'd like to start camping with them. Excellent timing for a book like this!

Looks like a fun book. Love the cover!

This cracked me up! I have had more disasters than I care to count. Nearly everything I make seems to turn out ugly or useless, at least to me. But that doesn't stop me from trying. I guess it's a good thing I'm more process than product about crafting.

This article came at the perfect time. I had a doctor's appointment yesterday and I was able to make two of them -- one full size as the pattern indicated for my husband (the dishwasher in this house) and one smaller one for my mother to use at her house. Very quick and easy!

This is so neat. My FIL brings me thrift store finds all the time. This is definitely worth a try. Love the beads and buttons!

Thanks, CraftStylish, for the opportunity to win. I'm loving the book giveaways -- even if I haven't won yet. I'd like to see her pattern for a wrap dress. I'm dying to make one.

These are so cute! I've made beads from clay but for some reason it never occurred to me to make buttons. I'd like to try this and make the button choker from a previous post.

I love the Chop Top. Hope I win!
posted: 9:01 am on March 11thRe: Book Giveaway: The Bold and the Beautiful: Button It Up
I followed the links above and saw the button embellished curtain. So cute! For a crafter, I'm remarkably uncreative. I can't wait to see the book to get some guidance about the buttons I've inherited and bought.

I love this project! It's a fantastic idea and so simple. I'll definitely make one (at least) soon. Thanks for the easy directions.

The link won't work for me. Am I the only one?
posted: 9:36 pm on September 20thRe: Unique Stash Buster: Dryer Balls
Forgive me sounding stupid but I have no idea what dryer sheets are for but I put one in the dryer with every load. Would this replace the dryer sheet? I wish I weren't such an idiot.

I love the planned chaos of the doilies. I have no eye for that sort of thing and envy it in others. Good job. :)
posted: 10:00 pm on August 7thRe: Baby blanket bag
That is a fantastic idea. The only change I would make is that while sewing the side and bottom seams, I should have sewn on some bias tape to cover the raw edges on the inside.

I love your bag. I agree that you can never have too many pockets. I have several pairs of jeans I'm hoping to make into purses. Your ideas were way better than mine. Your daughter is very lucky!

Gorgeous. I want to learn broomstick lace one day. I learned hairpin lace from StitchDiva.com and she's got some broomstick tutorials too. Your bag looks wonderful.
