Round-up of the Arts Bloggers as Spring Arrives

QuiltingAndPatchwork.com 

   We have many more projects for you to explore in another round of posts by the Arts Bloggers.  Since there was a request for knitting projects by a visitor to one of the blogs, there are some spool knitted ones included this week.

Do you have any requests for arts and crafts and other creative projects you’d like to see or have more information?

This week, Noreen, at Hankering for Yarn, has designed a couple of really fun treasures- it all began with a spool knitted kitty cat bookmark, which lead to a springtime bunny. Who knows where it will all end? 

At Layers Upon Layers, Cyndi shows us an easy way to put those background papers and textured bits to use for an organic collage. 

 Eileen at The Artful Crafter gives step-by-step directions for decoupage under glass with a couple of unique twists for making a museum store quality decoupage plate. 

 Use your sewing machine to create easy, charming embroidered felt easter eggs with Chloe at Tangled Thread. 

 Katelyn, at Stamping Mad, shows how to make a mixed media piece in celebration of the amazing egg.

Heather, at A Creative Journal, calls out attention to Sisters on Sojourn website update where we can check out what the Sisters have for visual journal keepers.

Mary Emma, at Quilting and Patchwork, describes in her post, Student Makes Quilt Depicting Slavery & the Underground Railroad, how youngsters can learn much by creating quilts in connection with their classes. One 5th grader designed a very interesting project.

 At The Creative Bride, the Purple Haired Puppet Lady completes the embroidered flower brooch that she started last week, using this tutorial.
