I thought that it’s been too long since I’ve hosted a contest on Tangled Thread… I’m giving away on of my DH’s copper fiber art tags, this one says “Love” in block letters. I had so many responses about my hand-dyed quilting cottons that I’ve decided to also include five 4 inch squares of the […]
I’ve got a new poll over on the right sidebar—-> just over that way :-)
The reason I’m asking is because I tend to go through stages of doing a ton of sewing for myself (clothing) or for my family if they’re lucky. But I don’t consistently sew clothing all the time. I do however always […]
Simplicity Patterns is teaming up with New York’s M&S Schmalberg, Inc, creators of lovely handmade silk flowers - to offer these custom made gardenia’s for 18 lucky customers:

I’m not normally a person to make decorative covers for things, but when a sad 8 year old boy asks - why not :-)
My neighbor’s young son just broke his arm a few days ago and really wanted to get a camouflage cast (to match his dad’s uniform, of course) Unfortunately, the hospital wasn’t […]
I’ve got two more contests to announce :-)

I’m holding a contest at my fashion blog, Her Accessories.
Want to see what I’m giving away to […]
Thank goodness, it feels like spring has finally arrived! It’s sunny & warm outside - it’s even warm enough that I can have my studio window open. Yes, I’m easily amused by pleasant weather!
I’ve found several sources for some great free embroidery patterns, both machine & hand embroidery!
The Flying Needle offers a ton of different […]
Is it really time to start thinking about Christmas? If you want to make a nice cross stitch Old World Santa, it probably is. The pattern is available free (don’t you love freebies?) at Coats and Clark.
You can download the instructions or just print them. Here’s what Coats and Clark has to […]
Annine’s Attic free pattern of the day is here. It’s a lacy Six Point Doily to crochet with cotton thread. It claims to be advanced but I have made lots of these. Once you get the hang of the small hook and thread rather than yarn, it’s not difficult at all. This is a fun […]
Annie’s Attic has a great stitch guide for knitters too. Check it out here.
If you are like me, I find a pattern I really like, start on it and then run into a stitch that I just don’t remember how to do. This is a great resource and refresher!

Just checked over at Annie’s Attic. The link from yesterday works for a new pattern every day. Bookmark it and check out the new stuff every single day. Today it is Patchwork Ornaments. Hard to believe we are already seeing Christmas patterns, but I guess it’s time if we want to have […]
