The Train to Crazy

I found an awesome new website. Well, new to me at least. It is called The Train to Crazy. She has a slew of great tutorials on there. I found her blog while searching for a ladybug wings tutorial for my daughter's ladybug princess costume. Isn't it funny what ideas 5 year-olds come up with for costumes?! 

I really like the look of this little dress, as well as the skirts she has on her blog.

I've been thinking about making some pillow covers to change things up in my living room a little bit, and this tutorial on A Pretty Cool Life is just the ticket!

First Quilt Ever Tutorial

 
There is a great tutorial for making your First Quilt Ever over at Obsessively Stitching. It's broken down into a bunch of smaller steps and she answers questions throughout. There are a lot of other fun projects on that site, as well.

Crafty Blog Chain

So, my friend Pam told me about a cute blog I hadn't stumbled upon yet called

which led me to find her that blogger's sister's blog

which then led me to




on which I found a tutorial for these

I think it's time to stop craft blog surfing for now.

Cute Websites

In my crafty blog stalking I come across a lot of really cute sites. Here are the links to a few I have found. Enjoy!

This one is written by a friend of a friend. Thanks for the heads up, Janelle!

A friend of mine from high school writes a feature on this site, Poppies at Play, called "Think About it Thursday". Also, every Friday it has a linky party called "Creative Cats". There are always a ton of really cute crafts linked up.



Last night I discovered Young House Love, which is so fun. It is especially fun if you love looking at houses.

Another great one if you like houses is Hooked on Houses. (Janelle tipped me off on that one, too!)

And I'm sure you've all seen this site, but I'll throw it on here anyways...Homemade by Jill! I love her stuff. She is so creative, and makes me want to hone my sewing & other crafty skills every time I go on there.

There you go! Now, go feed your crafty, bloggy addiction!
