oh man are these pics from sarah london textiles making me want to get my hooks out start crocheting! i love the flower blanket! anyone have a pattern like that? you can find her work on here or on flickr.
rebecca danger is one of my fave knitters and i can never resist posting about one of her adorable creations. here's the link to her newest - "monster chunks". happy knitting.craftynest always has wonderful projects to flex your crafting muscles with but this wine cork trivet caught my eye and i couldn't resist posting it. what a great idea to use up all those wine corks leftover from all the lovely summer drinking you may or may not be doing :)
gina at the shabby chic cottage has a great tutorial for this gorgeous honey bee pillow.
here's a lovely little roundup of girl's skirts that i can't wait to try:1. baby, toddler or adult skirt tutorial from blue eyed freckle.
2. border fabric sundress from lil blue boo.
3. simple, sweet skirt tute from debra's creative ramblings.
4. a double ruffle, twirl skirt from treasures for tots.
learn how to make your own fabric covered cork board over on sew spoiled. i was excited to see this as it's been on my to do list to make one of these for ages.
things i'm luving this week:
- check out this site if you are a bag lover who loves to make their own bags.
- who doesn't have loads of old tank tops laying around just begging to be made into fresh little girl's dresses? obsessively stitching has a tutorial showing you how to refashion yours.
- learn how to use to hem your own jeans.
- refashion that peasant blouse with "my mama made it".
- a great new skirt pattern that works for almost all shapes - even maternity, from "make it and love it" available in her etsy shop.
i wish i had a little girl so i could make all the adorable skirts!!
