As you may know, I used to be a teacher. I still have a lot of fondness for writing lesson plans and on the blog that translates to creating tutorials. Pictures, instructions, and a neat finished project – what could be better?
Here are some of the fun tutorial posts and free patterns I've created this year. From pincushions to softies to photo editing, I hope you'll find something you like!

From my family to yours, happy holidays!
