Craft Leftovers

I completely forgot that I would be leaving right after work tomorrow for an out of town trip so there will be no pattern this week. I’m really super sorry folks. Next time I will give you sooner notice or get the pattern ready before hand to post as scheduled. […]

I have acquired quite a few felted sweaters and ridiculous blouses with weird patterns from the thrift store over time, just for fun, but I’m trying to clean out my closet and they were something that needed to go… Just a little past their prime. Put that together with the […]

Okay, so things have yet again gotten away from me. But I’m just going to embrace it and gear up for next time. Basically I’m leaving out of town today and this was finals week so everything is nuts and all nighters. But in all of this I do have […]

Well, I decided to go ahead with a particularly Christmas craft this time around, which is actually good for me becase I procrastinate like no other. I will post close up shots on the flickr site, you should check them out. If you have any other ideas about making cards […]

Well I just thought I would post a little howdy here to let everyone know that you should look for the pattern on Saturday. I have to work a double shift and then off to pot luck for the artist group I am VP of.. I will be teaching people […]

Well, I’m not so happy with the colors that I picked out, so I’m going to make another one soon… Maybe with patterned fabric instead of just the plain color. I do like the pattern though. It’s a good way to use up little scraps of yarn and strips of […]

edited in: I found my cord, finally… i was getting worried about it, so here is a picture of the stamps that I made (and yes I did make the ultimate mistake of writing the text the correct way and so it is reversed when I stamp it… don’t do […]

Unfortunately I am going to have to postpone this week’s pattern to next week. I am out of town and even though I have the project finished it is going to take a little bit to get it written out (so that way it is not rediculouly confusing). I am […]

By Random out of the hat selection Sister Diane is the winner of this past pattern’s drawing! Woo! Congradulations! She has the choice of a kit from any of the posted patterns, I will let you know what she decides when she lets me know. I will unfortunately not be […]

Nicole from Canada! She decided on a water bottle sling kit because she does not have a sewing mechine and dark and light blue for her colors. I am sending it off tomorrow morning and it will hopefully get to her in the next week or so. I hope she […]

Alright, so it’s been two weeks so here is a new crafty leftover pattern for you. It just takes a few scraps of sturdy fabric, a button, and some thread! Not too bad at all. It’s a really simple pattern and takes full advantage of the zig-zag stitch on the […]

Here is the first crafty leftover pattern that I made this summer, I made it with two half skiens of yarn in contrasting colors, worsted weight. It knits up pretty fast. Because I do not have hosting where you can download pdf files, I just made the patterns into jpgs […]

All summer long I have been trying to be very resourceful as far as projects to keep me occupied goes. I have spent as little as possible and have just used what I have on hand (which is too much) and things from other projects that I have done for […]
