Crafting

From The Craft Room: Additions

Lately I’ve found myself drawn to some great new ideas and projects, some led by folks I’ve been aware of for a long time. Take a few minutes to check them out over on YouTube and, if you like what you see, click their ‘Like’ button and don’t forget to subscribe.

Embroidery 101

Natalie from the Missouri Star Quilt Company has started a new series on their YouTube channel that focuses on embroidery. The series is composed of short (less than 10 minutes) videos that focus on different aspects of starting to learn to embroidery. The shop has also created a Beginner’s Kit, which I think is awesome.

If you are new to the craft, or would like to return to it, this is a great opportunity taught in easy lessons designed to build your confidence. 

Maymay Sewed It

She’s done it again! Maymay from Maymay Made It returned to her sewing room over a year ago to learn to quilt and after a lot of, shall we say ‘encouragement’ from her crafting viewers, has brought us along on her sewing adventures.

I have to say that I’ve enjoyed watching her progress with a variety of projects that incorporate her quilting into some basic sewing items. She takes us along on these adventures in a comfortable and easy way that reminds all of us to enjoy the process, mistakes and all.

The Crafty Organizer

Norene is back and bringing a lot of great organizational ideas that you can make yourself while keeping within a budget! I love the way she finds useful and creative ways to keep not only my craft space but the rest of my house in order.

These are a few of my favorite new crafting finds that I’m enjoying. Let me know what you think.
