A Paper Piecing Tutorial for You at Petite Purls

by jennifer December 16, 2009
written by jennifer December 16, 2009

The latest issue of Petite Purls went live today and includes a couple of my paper-pieced ornament projects. There’s still time to make the flower ornament pictured above, and a related festive wreath ornament, too. So head over to Petite Purls for the directions.

This issue is packed with great patterns including fun crochet “Foamies” by Carey Huffman and a cute sewing pattern for a “Sweet Panda” by Maritza Soto. And, dear knitters, there is plenty in this issues for you, too. I love this darling earflap hat pattern by Kate Oates and these lacy tights for little girls (so fancy!) by Marina Hayes. And don’t miss this super cute Little Red pattern by Aine Mahon.

Also, be sure to check out Allegra’s interview with CraftSanity regular, Susan B. Anderson, sample a pattern from Susan’s latest book, “Itty Bitty Toys.”

Okay, I’m going to stop and let you just go over and check out the magazine. It’s growing fast and I’m happy to be a part of it. Enjoy!

    1 week ago by craftsanity I just finished coloring a print for Aquinas College. I was really enjoying the process until I got the news alert on my watch that there was another mass shooting in Texas today. This violence is beyond ridiculous. Guns are killing people. They are manufactured as killing machines after all. Without access to guns, a deranged person would have a difficult time going on a shooting spree. It’s time to up the degree of difficulty when it comes to obtaining weapons and try harder to save our own lives. We can’t go on like us. It’s completely uncivilized.  #craftsanitypress   #print

    1 week ago by craftsanity My youngest daughter and I picked these apples off the tree we planted in our yard several years ago. It’s never produced more than a few apples, but this year there are a few dozen. Still not a lot, but I’m very excited about these sweet/tart-tasting, homegrown beauties. I could definitely happily live on a small orchard. I just love the satisfying feeling that comes from growing our own food. I wish more emphasis was put on suburban farming as opposed to exhaustive efforts to keep one’s lawn as green and weed-free as the neighbors’. Growing food and natural dyes
