Sew a Cozy Fabric Bowl for Homemade Bread — Perfect for Fall
Hi everyone! My name is Cataleya (@happystitches_us on IG), and I’m a 10-year-old sewist wanted to sew a fabric bowl for my homemade sourdough bread — something soft, cozy, and perfectly “fall.” I picked a daisy print cotton fabric for the outside and a deep mushroom-green lining for the inside. Together, they felt like how I envision autumn: warm, natural, and just a little bit whimsical. From there, I started creating this cozy reversible bowl, filled with texture, color, and a tiny nod to the change of seasons! MATERIALS:…

A Reversible Trick-or-Treat Tote Bag
This Halloween, 10-year-old sewist Cataleya created her own reversible tote bag—perfect for trick-or-treating and for everyday use afterward.She wanted something strong enough to hold candy yet cute enough to reuse for books and crafts once the season ends. She used cotton fabric and her favorite Clover sewing tools to design a simple, festive, and functional project. Her favorite part was adding a black gingham pumpkin face for a playful Halloween touch! MATERIALS: (Finished size: Approximately 11.75″ W × 14.75″ boxed corners) Rotary Cutter – for smooth, clean cutting through…

Back to School: Create a Roll-Up Crayon Holder!
Hi friends! It’s Cataleya here! I’m new to the Clover blog rotation, but you can check out my IG @happystitches_us 🙂 I’m 10 years old, and my life revolves around sewing and my new golden-doodle puppy Flora! I’ve been sewing something fun for Back-to-School—a Roll-Up Crayon Holder! I got the idea because my little brothers always bring their big, chunky crayons everywhere, and they prefer their own crayons to the ones at restaurants. So I made this roll-up case to keep them neat for car rides, lessons, or just drawing…

Hey knitters, Mark here from @bearsdenessentials with a pattern inspired by my love of the outdoors and the beauty of our small corner of heaven here in Montana! I just love the simplicity of clothing where “less is more” when it comes to design. My wife and I live in the Ruby Valley where the Tobacco Root Mountains border us to the north. It’s such a beautiful but rugged terrain of rocks sprouting over 10,000 feet. I’m excited to let you know that this is the first in the line…
