Knits and Great Giveaway!

I am so wrapped up with fabric and sewing that when I received Amy Butler’s Newsletter about her new line of knits, I thought she was making a new line of fabric Knits. OOPS! That is not the case, however her new line of yarn knits looks amazing! I love the organic colors. I can’t comment on the texture but as soon as I get my hands on some I will write all about.

I can only crochet slippers. Maybe everyone will be receiving slippers for Christmas.

Or maybe I will have to try some of Mamachee Crochet PDF Patterns!

Dana from the blog Made is hosting a Giveaway with Mamahee Crochet PDF Patterns! Below are just a few eye candy pictures of Mamachee Crochet PDF Patterns!

Giveaway ends WEDNESDAY 8/4/10 at 10pm (Central Time).

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. So I set to work. Materials: Plastic multipurpose 5" Zipper Fabric Scraps Lightweight interfacing 808 Pellon Trims (We clipped key fobs with 1.5" swivel hooks onto our coin purses . There are tons of tutorials on making key fobs .) Step 1: Print out the Coin Purse Template PDF. Cut 2 main fabric, cut 2 lining and 2 interfacing using the template. Optional: Cut a 2"X2" square of your choice main fabric or lining. This strip of fabric is used to clip a key fob to your coin purse later....
