My first Chevron project was some new zip pouches – I inherited a duffle bag full of knitting needs (yay!) from a good friend and these zip pouches are the best way I’ve found to organize them. I needed a new one for my circulars, and I thought the pink Chevron would be perfect. Also [...]

It’s fabric like this that is straight fuel to my fabric fire…the new Chevron from Riley Blake is so perfect, you really have to have some of every color (and there are 10 of them). Or maybe it’s just me… This is what I’ll be working on waaay past my bedtime for the next week [...]

Pin It I saw this idea on Pinterest and loved it. I had a wall just aching for this project… Cut out a zillion leaf shapes with lots of different smallish printed papers. I used blues/greens/browns because that’s my color comfort zone. Monochromatic papers work best I think. I used the Don Juan Cricut cartridge [...]
