Craft Into Spring

The arrival of spring provides a much needed breath of fresh air, as well as sunny bike rides, crocuses showing their colorful faces, a lighter wardrobe, and a cleaner closest (well, maybe). Kick off your spring cleaning by clearing out your stash of fabric scraps. Refashion an old garment into a perpetual work-in-progress with this week's How-Tuesday project, shared with us by Jennifer Cooke of Raeburn Ink and Design Your Own Tees. 

Full instructions here.

Come Craft in Brooklyn & San Francisco

Hello, spring! Join us in Brooklyn to learn how to perform a little freezer paper alchemy to transform your wardrobe for the new season with Raeburn Ink. For you West Coasters, swing by the Museum of Craft and Folk Art in San Francisco to stitch up a bowtie.

Full details here.

100 Things to Make

As you might recall, back in November I invited one and all to submit how-to projects to the ReadyMade 100 contest, for which I had the great honor of being a guest judge. Well, friends, the April/May issue is online and on the news stands, brimming with inspiring projects to make, from wine-glass bell jars to golden saw horses.

Check out all the projects here.
