Tea Bag Gift Pouch
Long years ago, when I was a rep for a popular stamp company one of the projects my upline taught me was a fun tea bag gift pouch. It was before the internet, so the genius of the projectwas madly emphasized. To this day I still make these little tea bag gift pouches and today […]
Scrappy Moss Stitch Coaster Pattern
If there’s one thing I love, it’s my scrap yarn ball. If there’s two things I love, it’s my scrap yarn ball and the moss stitch – so I scored big when I created this scrappy moss stitch coaster pattern because not only does it check off both of those boxes, these little bundles of […]
Scrappy Happy Birthday Card
When gathering trash and recycling from my studio, I noticed various hole punches on the floor around my recycling and decided to challenge myself to make something from hole punches so I would have uses for them moving forward. You know I love a good scrap project and this fits the bill. The obvious choice […]

How to make Dyed Plarn
I probably never would have tried Dyed Plarn but, pandemic made me do it. While in the quarantine, we’ve been having to order our groceries through Shipt. I’m so thankful for the service that allows me to stay home and have my groceries delivered to my door – but the one caveat to that is that […]
Scrap Yarn Bucket Hat
I don’t collect every tiny scrap of yarn – though some folks do and they use the tiniest of them to stuff amiguarmi, pillows, and the like. For me, a scrap needs to be 4 inches or longer to stuff in my scrap bucket. I’ve been saving scraps for over a year – I really […]
No Sew T-Shirt Shopping Bag
For whatever reason, I have a stack of t-shirts that I don’t know what to do with. Some (like the one shown here) are from events I’ve attended (that I’ll never wear again) or they have a stain or are somehow unfit for donation… so I’ve been using them for things like rag wreaths — […]
