Spring officially arrived last week, and here we are talking about summertime knitting! Our second Knitscene Summer issue debuted today, and if you ask me, it's a scorcher! Thank you, I'll be here...
Just down this curving culdesac road you will find a wonderful and welcoming shopping experience. The Mother's Day sale I attend each year is in a private home that is set up and opened to the public for a few days and offers a variety of select handmade items for you to purchase.

4 the love of wood

http://4theloveofwood.blogspot.com/
This time of year is so special to me because I get to show my gratitude for all of the hard work that goes into teaching my daughters. I love to make handmade gifts and this year is no exception. Since money does not grow on trees around here, I looked at my stash (I keep my scraps in hat boxes ) and tried to see what I had a lot of; small zippers, trims, Peltex strips ( from making iPad cases ), fabric scraps and some hardware for key fobs.

http://365sakerdukansticka.blogspot.com/ Nu har det snart gått ett år sedan jag tog över arbetet med att hitta gratismönster på nätet och dela med mig till er. Det har varit ett spännande år och ömsom lätt och ömsom ett grävande för att hitta mönster som jag tycker är värda att dela med er. Men när mitt år är till ända vill jag lämna över det till någon annan.

Have you ever been to the point where you just feel spent? Like you have nothing left to offer? That there’s something weighing you down but you don’t know how to lose the weight? I’m in that place. This gnawing exhaustion crept up on me yesterday afternoon and continued into the evening.
Wool roving is not cheap, making a big felted project needs a lot of them. If the whole piece of felted project is done purely from wool roving, it is quite costly and wasting your money. In order to be economical on bigger felting project, we can use a method… Look, what have I made from the plain mini felt Easter eggs? I have turned them into little tweet tweet birdies and some other cuties. http://www.craftpassion.com/

Bloomize -:- blooming ideas for living

These handsome looking leather backpacks are expensive, costing several hundreds. I recently watched this touching Japanese drama, which has ignited my interest in them once again. http://www.bloomize.com/

michele made me

In my last sketching post , I was lamenting my lack of drawing flair. See, I can draw. What I'm missing is my very own michele-type style. A few of your comments on that post were quite insightful I felt, and got me to thinking. For instance, Catie suggested: "Have you ever tried just adding a little colour?

How About Orange

It's spring in Chicago, which means wet things no longer freeze outside and the sun actually shines. So I tried another project with Inkodye , the photosensitive dye tested in a few projects last year. I'd received samples from the manufacturer to play with, and I've been curious about using paper doilies as stencils. I taped a piece of white cotton canvas to cardboard wrapped in plastic.
Aren't these wonderful?!! These lovely Teacup Scraps are filled with beautiful Pansies ! The one at the top is the original, but I'm also offering a second one that I've created with flowers that have more purple tones to them. These would be so pretty on a Handmade Card , nice for Mother's Day perhaps!

I’ve been thinking a lot lately about the color blue. In my work studio, I have lots of bright colors set against a white, neutral background because it inspires me to mix in color according to my mood, removing those that may not be particularly rockin’ my world at the moment. Currently, I have lots of yellow, orange, red and pink in my studio but a few days ago a more moody mix of emeralds and indigos started to creep in. Darker tones of blue on the bed paired with brighter ones throughout the room, like light blue walls, make moody blues less so, via: Anthropologie

Korgen är virkad och sedan tovad i tvättmaskin, därefter så har jag nålfiltat fast lite prickar på den. Jag har använt mig av 2-trådigt ullgarn samt förgarn från Ullcentrum och virknål 7mm. Dynan är virkad i öglevikning, tovad i tvättmaskinen och därefter kardad så att den nästan blir som ett riktigt pälsskinn. Material När korgen torkat nålfiltas prickarna dit. Tänk på att nålen är riktigt vass och dessutom skör.
