Crafting Around the Web

There are so many wonderful craft projects, ideas and fiber art works out on the web, that I’m going to start a new series and share my favorites with you every week!

• The Twisted Stitcher has a great idea for using Altoids tins, fabric and a little piece of cross stitch embroidery to create a cute little needle carry case.
• I laughed so hard at this wonderful video from Hankering for Yarn!
• Embroidery As Art is a new-ish blog that focuses on embroidery, not as a craft but as fine art – there’s some amazing stuff here!
• Large is a sewing blog for plus-size seamstresses.  There are some great tips and ideas – as well as real-world women modeling their own clothes.
• Purl Bee has an adorable tutorial on making jelly bean beanbags.
• I love Betz White’s handmade felt pomander – besides, you’ll save yourself “clove pushers thumb” by making them out of fabric

Happy crafting!
