Want to know how I finish my cross stitch in a hoop? So the back is neat and tidy. My quick version is to use scrap book paper. You can read the full tutorial or watch a video on how to do it on the blog now.

Do you ever have so many ideas, you dont know which one to start first. Then you end up doing nothing? I'm currently buzzing with things I want to design, create and make yet by the end of the day I've achieved very little. Tell me your strategies for getting it done. Plus how cute are these bezels I got to frame mini embroidery in! *adds to to do list* #icraftsohard #craftcartwright #happyvibes #sunshine #summerfun #relaxation #happy #craft #craftsposur #crafts #makers #handmade #crafthappy #crafting #diy #madeitmyself #crossstitchaddict #embroidery #somanyideas #creativity #art #creativelife #makers #makeart #crafty #crafthappiness #sewing #sew #jewelry #somanyprojects

Hey ? I am here. Just exhausted from the return to school. I'm trying to be more assertive with my work boundaries and say no when they are asking too much. Plus I have been taking a battering from my hayfever already! Anyone else think this is too early?

Ad-gifted not in school today, so time to break out my next craft kit. I cant wait to make this macrame plant hanger from @sugru Such a cool 70s vibe, my plants will love it ?

Currently sewing my spring chicken design. But I'm having a problem with my arms. They just dont seem to be long enough for me to see the pattern clearly anymore ? Anyone else have this problem?
