Custom skirts, shirts and other creative whimsies!
Now that we’ve all experienced and lived through how to make Mosaic Stepping Stones, we’re basically BFFs and need to commemorate it in some way. But how could we do that?! Tattoos seem too risky, and pricking our toes and becoming blood brothers like they do in Harriet the Spy seems too extreme and unsanitary …
Welcome to Adult Summer Camp! We will be focusing on a small area of summer camp activities: crafts and drinking! I realize that in traditional, children summer camp, they have crafts and snacks, but we’re doing this as an adult take! I have included mocktails for each day also, so if you’re pregnant, or not …
I can make that Mondays are all about inspiration and this week’s challenge I was inspired by a Coach purse I saw on the Coach Outlet store. Some of my first projects that I sewed without help from my mom in my teen years were purses. Actually that’s mostly what I made at first before …

We’re all superheroes for knitting right? Especially knitting sweaters! You can easily adapt just about any sweater pattern to become a superhero sweater! Opt in the super hero colors, add an intarsia symbol, maybe just go ahead and knit a cape! I adapted Megan Goodacre’s Hollywell cardigan (find on Ravelry!) to meet the needs of …
