Chunky Knit Cowl in Pearls

This is the same pattern as my 1st cowl, but I cast on 5 Extra stitches so it would be a little looser… You can find the original pattern with step by step instructions (and videos tutorials) in my Post DIY Chunky Knit Cowl- A step by Step Guide. If you’re on Ravelry, you can find the project here:…

DIY Chunky Knit Cowl- A Step by Step Guide

August 14, 2015 by Cindy Leave a Comment

Chunky Knit Cowl

I finished my airplane-ride-to-Charlotte knitting project!  As in I DIDN’T just throw the half/completed project on a shelf to finish at a later date! Done. Ready to wear. Except, it is 104&#176 outside. I am a slow knitter, so it’s just as well.  If I’d waited until it actually was cold to start, who know’s…

Wedding Hair Trial #1 – Rope Braid Bun

May 26, 2014 by Cindy Leave a Comment

To save a little sanity the day of the wedding, I want to try to get a reasonable idea of what to do with my hair. I have been doing my own up-dos for my work Christmas parties for 3 years… but they were basically “on the fly” involving clear elastics and bobby-pins… so I…

[National Sewing Month] Diaper & Wipes Pouch

September 17, 2013 by Cindy Leave a Comment

Did you know that September has been “National Sewing Month” since 1982? It started with a proclamation from President Ronald Reagan, declaring September as National Sewing Month “In recognition of the importance of home sewing to our Nation.” What a great opportunity to share one of my more recent home-sewing creations (beyond my typical quilts)….

Diaper cakes are super cute. And useful to any new mom going the disposable diaper route. But. They have been done. In a search for a new idea for a handmade Baby Shower Gift, I came across a video for these cute little roses made out of baby wash cloths and baby spoons (thanks Pinterest!)….

Mod Podge Simpsons Pumpkin!

October 31, 2011 by Cindy Leave a Comment

Yes. It is true. You can decoupage a pumpkin. Mod Podge + Fabric. Fabulous. Mod Podge is basically watered down Elmer’s glue. You brush it on, apply strip of fabric, and brush another layer over the fabric and repeat around the whole pumpkin. I’ve done this with paper before, but never fabric, and never on…

Coffee Filter Flower Breakdown

July 18, 2011 by Cindy Leave a Comment

A rose for mom. That I made. Out of coffee filters. Seriously! There is already a fabulous photo step-by-step tutorial available on Crafster. SarahJSaturday made such a beautiful bouquet; I could not believe they weren’t real and, in fact, coffee filters. I originally found the bouquet via a post on Dollar Store Crafts. Amazing. BUT….
