Red, White, and Blue Tutorial...

Happy July 4th!

I hope everybody has a great July 4th tomorrow! My husband gets the day off today, so we are going on a photography spree at the Marina. But before we head out, I wanted to share with you this fun craft tutorial: Safety Pin Flag, pdf.

A great way to show some patriotic flair this July 4th!

Enjoy!

Bottle Cap Fun!

I found this great picture tutorial on flickr, from verybigjen, on how to make Bottle Cap Pincushions! These are so fun because all you need is one bottle cap (I used a 2 liter soda cap), some felt, a needle and scissors, embroidery thread, and some fiberfill stuffing. Oh ya! And don't forget the fun part! Pins or Needles to stick in your pincushion! :)

I have made 3 already, one for fun, one to hold my sewing needles, and one to use at quilting group. They are so small and portable. This was my first felt craft and it was a lot of fun!

Also, if you want some great inspiration, go check out her pincushion galleries: here!

So go try it out! :) It will be fun!

Hexagon Fun!

As of late, I have been enthralled with Hexagon Granny Squares. I have decided  to try my hand at a Hexagon Blanket. I found this really great tutorial on how to make them from Attic24. I love her blog. She is from the UK and does amazing crochet. I cant stop looking at her newest Blanket creation blogged here. She has some excellent pictures that I could look at all day. The colors just pop off the page. She has made some very fun, eye catching blankets. She has a couple of other great tutorials on her page. Definitely a must see!

As practice and to make sure I could do Hexagons. I did a small sample peice with scraps of yarn. I made the hexagon into a flower. It will look really cute on my cirular dining room table next to my new hutch. Now that I have Hexagons down, it is time to start searching for some yarn to start my project. But for now, here are some pictures of my first 7 Hexagons. Enjoy!

Fun Tutorial!

Ok, so I have decided that moving is a complete drag! We are moving in a little over a month and I have so much to pack! Which means hardly any crafting or photography or even new etsy store items! Whats a girl to do with no crafting?! Go Crazy?! Ok, so maybe I already am crazy! :) Since I have been way to busy to keep up with my crafts and online fun, I have decided to at least share with you this really great tutorial that I found through the blog Paint In My Hair!

She posted a great tutorial on The Undercover Crate! So cute! I am dying to do this tutorial just as soon as I get that second bedroom in a month and a half!  So, Check it out! The cool thing about this is, she put it in PDF form which means all you have to do is download it and it is in this great format for printing! But the best thing? It's FREE! :)
