We are well into 2010 now – last year seems like a distant memory. So many projects + so many crafts to get into – right now I am working on several quilts for a project with Chronicle books – very exciting – but back breaking work. No really… sewing for 8 hours straight for 8 days straight has sent my back into spasms.
As we are well into January of 2010 whipup is business as usual – some worthwhile projects to get involved with include crafting for haiti – with craft hope - hope you can help.
- Need to make something - here is a lovely small project: 65 Roses quilt for charity find out how you can participate and make a square for this quilt here.
- Made me smile: Craftersize - time to get fit for your new year resolutions … tictac vases really made me smile … tawashi dishcloth …
- BOOKS: The sewing bible and the knitters book of wool
- Made my heart sing … for the style I love Kirsty’s faux wood and embroidery wrist cuff … + this crochet garland had my heart pumping and my fingers working the yarn.
- Still time for Calendars: 2010 whipup crafty collectible calendar here (sorry no discounts as these are print on demand – but really they are worth it).
- … More great tutes + crafty ideas to kickstart your year… totoro mittens are very cute … mustache embroidery patterns … these decals are lovely … quilt freebie from Lizzy house … these puffy pouches look fun to make …
- + plenty of Craft challenges to get you motivated … granny a day … paintbox quilt-along …
Hope the year has started off well – happy crafting!
