Episode 17 ~ Whole Lot of Crafty Goodness
Listen to the podcast of this postI had a very busy, crafty week. I didn’t have time to organize a planned topic, so, instead of skipping a week I thought I would share everything that went on.
Thank you to Nicole for sharing her pictures. Nicole took one of her husband’s old shirts and made this dress for her daughter. LOVE IT!!! She got the idea from Crafster.org. Leave a comment and let Nicole know what you think. I love the idea and I may be running to the thrift store to pick up an old shirt to try it!
Tiffany shared with us how she trys to break the stereotype of only older people craft. She always brings her crafts with her – knits in public as much as she can. Join her – help spread the word and change this stereo type.
Picture from the baseball game – here is my WONDERFUL husband; he’s a cutie, isn’t he?
Picture of the card catalog I swiped from the junk mail pile at work. Great place to get fabric postcard ideas.
This is my sewing table ready and waiting for my new machine. One more day!!! This picture does not give this table justice. I love this table so much. It is the perfect size not to be too overwhelming in a room. The “L” shape is perfect and very comfortable to work at. It doesn’t have much storage, but everything can’t be perfect. the fact that It doesn’t have storage allows me to sit where my cutting mat is, if needed.
Everything I bought at JoAnn’s.
My first knitting attempt. I knitted a little, I purled a little, then I stockinette stiched a little. See Friday’s post for a picture of the supplies I picked up at Hobby Lobby.

That dress is super cute! What a great idea. I love the buttons down the back.
Hi Brye Lynn,
I have not had a chance to get caught up on podcasts yet due to traveling, etc but I am thrilled to read that you got your new machine. You will have so much fun. I noticed the fabric you picked up at JoAnn’s. I made have made two totes and a huge wallhanging for my dining room with the same fabric. I still have to make a table runner to match, but will send pictures when I get home.
Project runway is scheduled to start Aug 20 on Lifetime. Bravo has a replacement with Isaac Mizrahi and another model. I didn’t watch it and I haven’t heard any feedback either but I didn’t look for feedback.
Loved to hear that you’re getting the machine you want.
My husband surprised me with the new Pfaff Creative Vision the Christmas before last and I love it! Have lots of fun this week playing with your new machine. Just think of the posibilities!! Nicole, what a cute idea, and since it’s her dad’s shirt it has sentimental value too!
Didn’t get to listen to the podcast yet, Brye Lynn, but I can tell you that your knitting is going great for a first attempt! And, your husband IS a cutie…
