Best way to travel to “Sew-cials”

August 15, 2009 by Scarlett Burroughs

Have you ever gone to a sewing event and left behind a crucial item like your sewing machine foot control or something as basic as scissors? I have and blogger Insights From SewCalGal admitted to it in a recent post Checklist of items to bring to a retreat, class, workshop. I agree with one of her readers Beena who commented, I love going places…it’s the traveling that I can’t stand.

SewCalGal points out that traveling with fewer hassles takes preparation and organizational skills she has had to develop over the years. She shares a checklist of items to bring along to sewing events so you don’t end up forgetting essentials. It’s printable. Get the list here.

Christmas Poinsettia Candle Cozy Crochet Pattern – A Pretty Little Holiday Make for Battery Tea Lights

If you love adding little handmade touches to your Christmas decorating, this Christmas Poinsettia Candle Cozy from CraftBits is such a pretty project. It is festive, eye-catching, and just the sort of small crochet make that can add a lovely pop of holiday color to a table, shelf, or mantel.

What I really like about this pattern is that it feels special without being overwhelming. It is a sweet seasonal project for dressing up battery tea lights, and the poinsettia design gives it that classic Christmas look that never gets old. It would be gorgeous as part of a holiday centerpiece or made up in a few sets for decorating around the house.

You might have seen this one featured on Crochet.CraftGossip before, and it is easy to see why it is worth another look. It is cheerful, decorative, and a lovely way to bring a little crochet into your Christmas styling without taking on a huge project.

If you are in the mood for a small festive make, this one is definitely a pretty pick.
