Check out what I cooked up for the Sugar High Club group art show at Ink and Pistons‘ Slushbox Art Gallery in West Palm Beach! The show opens March 8th, 7pm-11pm and features “all things sweet, sugary, sparkly, extra fluffy and of course super Kawaii!!” Here’s a link to the Facebook event.

This tissue cozy definitely wins for Most Hand-Sewing Needed!!!

I really love how the circus tent turned out!

Mollie Makes “DIY FASHION” bookazine is out now! It 132 pages of people’s photos of their closets and favorite outfits (including me), and q&a’s about their style influences and how they add their own DIY touches. There are also 12 projects inside to help you accent your own wardrobes, including a brand new crochet pattern by me for Frosted Animal Cookie brooches!

I am really not great with technology, but you can either purchase a hardcopy from the link above, or you can get on your iPhone or iPad, download the Mollie Makes app for free, and then purchase the DIY Fashion issue inside the app.

Have fun! I’ve been looking at the bookazine in my iPhone (I don’t have an iPad), and everything is kinda tiny, but I can tell there is a lot of neat stuff inside. Some of these girls’ houses are AMAZING! I had a really tight deadline for submission, which pretty  much meant, I didn’t have time to pick up the house much (doh!), so I took photos outside. My garden is not so green right now, so I ended up next to a wall. Not my 100% ideal for a colorful backdrop, but, you work with what you got!

Wanna try something fun? We’re trying out our first Yummy You! photo contest! You can enter here at the Yummy You! facebook page! 

All you have to do is submit a photo of yourself wearing a Yummy You! item, or your Yummy You! styled in a fun way (like the sample I made above), or if you don’t already have any Yummy You! items, you can just draw or doodle something inspired by The Yummy You-niverse! Or if you just want to participate by voting on other people’s images, that’s awesome, too! In 9 days, we will choose one winner from the top 3 most-voted images. I hope to see some of your scrumptious submissions!

I forgot to blog that you can now order a Pug Coffee Cup Cozy in my shop! I ordered a few more taupe/beige shades of yarn, but I was told it would take a few weeks, so, this little light fawn color is all that there is available right now! More colors later!

I know some of you will ask, “Can I buy the pattern?” Right now, no. But maybe later! I am thinking a couple months down the road, I will put together a bunch of animal coffee cup cozy patterns, like this owl, or this fox, or all of these fine creatures:

Heidi from Snappy Tots asked me if I could chat about the place I crochet, and I said sure! You can check out the Q&A here on her blog. Here’s a tiny peek:
