Hi everyone, Shannon and Jason here (@embracethecreativechaos on IG)! If you have been along for our creative journey or have any of our books, you already know we have a thing for tote bags. Okay… Shannon has a thing for tote bags. Scrappy Wonky, sashiko, kogin-zashi, quilted, hand stitched, leftover fabric from a project, rescued and reworked ties and jeans are all called into action to create more totes. Thank goodness she can’t make shoes (maybe in due time).When we were asked to create a project using the Clover Slash…

Cozy season is here friends! Have you ever done any foundation paper piecing (FPP)? This is such a great way to piece together tiny little quilting blocks and have them come out perfectly. I’m fairly new to FPP, but I’ve written a little tutorial for you today: we’re going to be making a mug cozy! If you’re new to FPP like me, feel free to watch some YouTube tutorials on it – it’ll definitely make my instructions a bit more clear! Let’s get started by grabbing the following supplies: MATERIALS: Clover…

Happy November everybody! My name is Molly, from @louloopsco on IG! Now that we’ve had our spooky season, we can move to the next best holiday: Thanksgiving (because of the food, DUH)! Continuing on with our crochet food series, I decided we NEEDED to add a turkey leg into the mix This is a super simple beginner pattern that works in the round, so let’s get started!   MATERIALS: Clover Amour 9mm Crochet Hook Needle set Patchwork scissors Big Twist plush yarn in “cardamom” and “white” Poly-fil stuffing ABBREVIATIONS:…

Hello friends! Did you know that there is actually a National Candy Corn Day? I had no idea until it was called to my attention a few months ago! I’ve got a great project for you to make today… so that on October 30th on National Candy Corn Day, you can gift a Candy Corn Treat Bag full of goodies to your Halloween-loving friends! This is such fun trick-or-treat bag to make, and it finishes at 7 inches tall x 5 inches wide. So there is actually plenty of room…

Hello to you all! I’m Alex, the crochet and tunisian crochet designer and storyteller behind With Alex. Today I have a new crochet amigurumi pattern and I think he is splendid for this time of year! I would love for you all to meet Rumpelstilskein the dragon! This mischievous character pretends to be a goblin, but his is actually a dragon! Beware of him at night, he sneaks into homes and steals yarn, stitch markers, crochet hooks and more. Nothing is safe when Rumpelstilskein is around! He is also obsessed…

Hi all, it’s Rumer from @rumer_has_it on IG! With Halloween soon approaching, I hope you’ve got your costumes ready! If not, never fear! I’ve got a relatively quick DIY costume that you could complete this weekend. Growing up, I wasn’t super into Halloween and rarely dressed up. But now as an adult, I work in a department that is really enthusiastic about dressing up every year and very competitive at the costume contests. So this year, we voted on our costume theme and came up with the idea of “from…

Hi there, Erin from CraftsEverywhere here! Today, I’m bringing you a tutorial for these cute yarn ghosts. This craft can also be done with help from the kids too! I added these little ghosts to my spooky corner. So far, I don’t have quite enough Halloween decorations to go all out in my house but maybe one of these years…. October and Halloween are my favorite times of the year as the weather changes and gets cooler (finally). Crunchy leaves and awesome Halloween costumes are highlights for this month too.…

I’m Krista Ann from @explorewithknitsy on IG, and it’s probably fair to say that the fall season is the knitters’ favorite time of the year….The evenings turn cold, the air becomes crisp, the leaves begin to change, and best of all, the warm winter knits come out of the closet! So dust off your larger needles, grab some bulky yarn, bundle up in your coziest pajamas, and bundle up by the fire for an evening in of knitting! This autumn scarf was designed to be a piece that will keep…
