This summer we decided to put pool noodles over the springs on our tramp like others have done. They worked, but our black lab, "Oila", thought we had attached chew toys to it just for her. Each morning as I played fetch with her (mandatory at least twice a day at our house) I kept thinking there had to be something I could use those pieces of pool noodles for instead of just throwing them ...

Free Pattern: Super Scrubbies
I love looking for different color combinations and often share a "color inspiration" palette on my facebook page. I have decided to bribe people to use the palettes and share pix for a chance to win patterns. This week's palette was shades of blue. I decided to make a scrubber in similar shades. I LOVE how the colors turned out. Super Scrubbies Materials and Details Yarn: cotton ... [ Read More ]
Featured Free Pattern: Fish Scrubbies
When I saw the cute fish scrubbies by One Dog Woof I knew I would have to make them. I made one while on a road trip and only had some variegated cotton yarn with me. I thought I would see how it would look. It turned out cute and the stripes go the opposite way. The stripes in rounds is still my favorite look so I wanted to make one of those too. For the second scrubbie I decided to make it ... [ Read More ]

Weekly Wash #10: Jonathan’s Flowers
Over the past 10 years I have met the most amazing people and I love seeing the things they create from my patterns, especially when they make them for their kids. Tammi and Jonathan Pereira are a mom and son I have met through my shop and I consider them personal friends. I first met him when he celebrated his 11th birthday with a "snappy tots" cake. His mom has made him probably every hat ... [ Read More ]
Weekly Wash #1: January Washcloth
I love making washcloths, hanging towels and scrubbies. They are a great project for in the car and waiting rooms. I try to whip up several throughout the year and build a stash for last minute gifts. A few years ago I featured and designed a different cloth or scrubbie each week the entire year. This year, as I gear up to celebrate my fiftieth birthday in May, I thought it would be fun to do ... [ Read More ]
