Posted on July 8, 2016May 13, 2021by Carmen
tie-dyed shirts | ASimpleHomestead.com

I’m trying to stay away from Craftster swaps this month. I have too many other things to do with my design work, family time, a mini-vacation, etc. Of course I said I was too busy in June too but do you think that stopped me? No… The same thing I love about the Designers’ Challenges […]

crochet sampler bag | ASimpleHomestead.com

I haven’t posted a Finished Object Friday in quite a while and I didn’t want you to be alarmed. I still have hook or pair of needles in my hands practically every single day. I’ve also been working on some other non-fiber projects. I signed up for a swap in April. I swore I wasn’t […]

FO Friday – Beads and blocks

pink, purple and turquoise stitch markers

Can you believe it’s already the middle of March and I just recently finished off my February weather square?!   While I really enjoyed working on this each and every day, in the beginning, now I’m finding it works out better to haul out that bag and my temperature list only every few days (weeks?)

FO Friday – doilies and jewelry and sewing, oh my!

Posted on January 3, 2014October 26, 2021by Carmen
pencil roll

Weird title for this post, but I couldn’t come up with a better one for the vast array of projects I’ve finished in the last week of the year and the first days of the new one. To start, I learned a new craft … on December 22.  It was for Christmas presents of course.  […]
