Top 10 Craft Projects

December 29, 2015 By A Spoonful of Sugar - 4 Comments

Craft CollageWe certainly had a busy year in 2015 but plan to be back here in 2016 with lots more sewing, craft, and baking projects to share. It is hard to believe that this will be our 9th year here at A Spoonful of Sugar – it has certainly gone fast! Thanks for the lovely feedback on our Top 10 Sewing Tutorials from 2015, and all the interest you have shown in my book – A Spoonful of Sugar: Sew 20 Simple Projects to Sweeten Your Surroundings Zakka Style (available for pre-order from Amazon and Book Depository).

Following on from our Top 10 Sewing Tutorials of 2015, we have now put together our top 10 crafty projects from the year. Although sewing is our first love, we also love to dabble in a wide range of crafts. In this round-up you will find a mix of craft projects including: crochet, DIY, vinyl, gift wrapping, and origami. It is always fun to reflect back on all the posts we have done over the year. Most of these projects can be easily completed in a hour or so, and many are suitable for kids. Click on the title under the photo to be taken to the original post.

Thank you so much for the wonderful reception to t Thank you so much for the wonderful reception to the Quadra Pouch launch last week — I’m thrilled you’re loving this pattern as much as I do.Today I’m sharing a brand new Tilda version, stitched in the large size and made entirely from blenders. I used four Bellflower prints from the Wallflower range for the exterior, and four Stella prints from the Songbird collection for the lining — eight fabrics in total, making it delightfully scrappy.I love how easily Tilda collections mix and match, and how each corner of the pouch showcases a different print. The clever panel construction gives the pouch a neat flat base without boxed corners, and the result is both practical and beautifully structured.If you’d like to sew your own, the Quadra Pouch pattern is available in both my Pattern Store and Etsy Shop.Comment QUADRA and I’ll send the link straight to you.Pattern Details: Quadra Pouch (3 Sizes) - available in our Pattern Store and Etsy ShopFabric: Bellflower blenders and Stella blenders from Tilda, with thanks to @tilda_australia#tildafabrics #quadrapouch #sewingproject #scrapfriendlysewing #pouchpattern
