Re: Book Giveaway: Design-It-Yourself Clothes

I've been trying for YEARS to teach myself to draft patterns, with mostly little success, so I'd love to take a look at this book!

Re: Project Runway, Episode 1 Recap

In a way, I'm a little sorry that Ari went home instead of Mitchell-- it sounded like he was just making excuses, and Ari would have been rather entertaining. I wrote on my blog that Ari's dress basically looked like something out of a b-grade sci-fi flick that would have gotten skewered on Mystery Science Theater 3000, and seeing what she came up with for future challenges could have been interesting!

I love that you showed the sketches next to the final results. Definitely linking to this on the blog post.

Re: The "Times" They Are A-Changing: How to Make a Basket from a Newspaper

Fun idea! And good to see how to DIY it. I'm going to be redoing a closet within the next couple of months, and was looking for some inexpensive storage ideas... stumbled across this, which I'm posting as inspiration because I have no doubt that it could be DIYed with this technique and a little extra time: http://www.containerstore.com/browse/Product.jhtml;jsessionid=IPBNBUIE2Q0DJQFIAIMSNAGAVABBOJVC?CATID=78244&PRODID=10020377

(Incidentally, the site also comments that a coat of light lacquer prevents the ink from smudging.)

Re: Book Giveaway: Backcountry Betty Crafting with Style

Ooh, I'd love this!

Re: Book Giveaway - Backcountry Betty: Roughing It in Style

This probably wouldn't apply to most of my camping trips (I go backpacking a couple times a year), but it looks entertaining!

Re: Book Giveaway: Eco Craft: Recycle Recraft Restyle

I love how your giveaways have been so focused on recycling and eco-friendly crafts lately!
