Resource Roundup #12

Hey, everyone – a few cool things for you:

Tina Seamonster is looking for your crafty stories for the next Hello Craft podcast. In her words:

“Hello Craft is putting together a holiday episode of our podcast and would love to hear from you! The theme of the episode is getting and giving handmade for the holidays. Maybe grandma made you something really weird one year, maybe you gave someone the most amazing handmade treasure and they didn’t appreciate it. Maybe you are making all of your handmade gifts this year and it is changing your view of the holidays completely. Call our toll free voice line at 1-888-317-3785 and tell us your story in 5 minutes or less. Start your call out like this, “Hello Craft! My name is…” and then tell your story. Calls for this very special episode are due on 12/18, so call right now!”

Joan, of Lazy Girl Designs, has posted a free pattern for this gorgeous Noriko Bag on her website. Isn’t this thing lovely? Get the pattern while you can! And check out her cute fabric garland while you’re over there.
