Happy New Year 2018

Happy New Year from A Spoonful of Sugar

We would like to wish all of our readers our very best wishes for a wonderful 2018! We hope that the new year is brimming with possibilities and opportunities for you. More importantly, we hope you have good health, abundant happiness, and lots of creative time during the coming year. We really appreciate all the lovely comments we receive here on the blog, and on our instagram and facebook accounts.

2017 was a quieter year for A Spoonful of Sugar. I have been working towards a better work – life balance, regaining my health and energy levels, and finding more time to spend with family and friends. I still managed to share 38 blog posts, 12 new tutorials, several new recipes, and released 5 new pdf patterns.

Over on instagram, I shared my #2017BestNine – nine of my most popular posts in terms of likes and comments. Here is the roundup of photos I shared.

  • Ella the Elephant Pillow
  • Allsorts Pillow
  • Yuletide Cottages
  • Hexie Holiday Placemat

Our patterns are all available for immediate download from our Etsy and Pattern Shop.

My love of vintage haberdashery is still going strong. Vintage buttons, wooden cotton reels, and other supplies never fail to inspire me.  My collection is growing – I love to find vintage treasures on my travels – and incorporate them into my photography.
