These adorable embroidery sampler magnets from Corinne of So September might be just about the most clever, cute things I’ve seen in a while. Each magnet displays the name and example of a stitch. I’d love to have a collection of them on my fridge or white board in my craft room! [via Checkout Girl]
By Erin Gilday Hi Craftzine! It’s me, Erin from Patchwork Underground. I’m writing to you as part of Day 3 of my book tour for Stripped Down Patchwork: 12 Modern Projects Featuring Seminole Patchwork. Thanks for having me! My topic today: What is Strip Piecing?
GEEZ! Crafty is Cool’s Allison Hoffman never fails to amaze me with her amigurumi creations! Imagine how excited I was when I saw her pint-size version of Chairry on Pee-Wee Herman’s own Facebook page!
I love this simple stamp project from Jessica of Zakka Life. She created a tiny cross-stitch stamp that can be used to make all kinds of cross-stitched designs on cards. [via @allthingspaper]
I’m in love with the stripes, and with the simple making process! Ravelry member retrobaby has shared a gorgeous way to knit up a frame for a wall clock. It’s a simple stripe of garter stitch, with a drawstring to help it fit. I’m thinking about giving this a shot in crochet, too.
I love the simplicity of these cup cozies from Stephanie at All About Ami. You build the pattern to fit your cup, and the assembly process looks so easy. Plus, I’m always a fan of big wooden buttons! Stephanie’s how-to covers both straight-sided and tapered cups.
I love the juxtaposition of soft and hard in this cute crochet necklace project from Jessica of Happy Together. You could switch up colors and make a necklace for every season.
