Scrap Quilt
I made a couple of quilts for friends before we left Naples. One was for our neighbor – simply THE best neighbors I think we have ever had, which I think says a lot considering how many times we have moved! I started making this because I wanted to use up my scraps. The first […]
Accra, Ghana
We’ve moved! Again. We flew Air France (which we like) and were treated to decent airline food, glass glasses, and over the ear headphones already available. This was the premium economy seat. It was comfortable and fine for us, but such a long flight that I was ready to be done when there was still […]
The Trouble with Podcasting in Italy
In which I complain – just a little. Let’s recap: For about eight months I regularly published the Me Being Crafty podcast, taking what I thought would be a short break when we were getting ready to leave France and make our way to Italy. There are fifty episodes if you would like to hear […]

CraftSanity Magazine Sale
You don’t want to miss this – Jennifer over at Craft Sanity is having a sale on the print and PDF versions of the CraftSanity Magazine. I love this, I didn’t realize that I needed a couple of the editions so I bought them. Jennifer’s magazine is beautiful, full of really great stories and interviews, […]
Leather Card Holder Tutorials
I really love the phone cases that we have found here* because they have a small slim wallet area to hold a few things. Not a lot fits in the space, but for my kids it’s enough for their bus and lunch cards. That is great for me because despite knowing where their phones are […]
Scrappy Flying Geese
Ohhh this is such a good idea! I love being able to use up scraps (I started over with my scraps after I gave away an entire luggage full of scraps to the parent group at school) and flying geese are so fun to work with. Look at this tutorial that Heather over at House […]
