CraftGossip Launches Shop Range Exclusively For Crafters

July 16, 2017 by Shellie Wilson

SHOP NOW IN OUR STORE

Updated to add, we have now added so many more products to our store. From craft mugs, totes, enamel pins to gift ideas for crafty kids. All our shop items can be found here – BROWSE OUR STORE

CraftGossip.com discovered there was a lack of t-shirts on the market that appealed to creative Women. There are literally 100’s of t-shirt designs out there so what makes these t-shirts different?

They are designed with our crafty readers in mind. Each t-shirt has been hand designed to meet a niche market. We hope that our creative readers feel inspired by our t-shirts and are proud to show off their creativity. We didn’t stop there though, we are also launching t-shirts that help promote your handmade business. T-shirts like this soap making one are designed to get people talking and asking about YOUR business.

We currently have 15 designs in our Amazon store and we are mixing and matching them every week. If you see a design you love we suggest you grab it quickly as one of our plans is to make a range of limited edition t-shirts. Who knows when a design will be gone forever!

We plan to market our crafty t-shirt designs on our Facebook page so that’s a great place to follow any updates of new designs and soon to be deleted designs too.  We have Crochet T-shirts, Knitting T-shirts, Soapmaking T-shirts and many more. They are perfect gifts for creative moms and women.

We have two designs that are really turning heads at the moment, they are our Knitting Super Women t-shirt,

and also our Funky Embellish Life T-shirt.

Pencil Bookmark Cross Stitch Pattern

To celebrate back to school season, I wanted to make a fun and useful cross stitch pattern, so I decided on this cross stitch pencil bookmark. 

It’s a really easy pattern even though it calls for six colors. You definitely don’t have to use all the colors if you don’t want to, and you can use different colors to make a colored pencil instead of the traditional yellow one. 

These sorts of projects always end up taking longer than I imagined they would in my head, because I just don’t stop to do the math of exactly how many stitches are in a piece that’s 23 stitches by 74 rows (1,702, though not every single one of them is covered, most of them are). 

But because the coloring of the chart is so straightforward, I’d say it also doesn’t take as long as 1,700 stitches sounds, if that makes sense. Because you barely have to count anything and could make most of it without consulting the chart, you can get into a groove pretty easily and stitch whole sections in a single sitting. I had a lot of fun stitching this one and I think you will, too. 

Once the stitching is done, take a piece of felt and sew it to the back to hide the mess you’ve made and make it a nice smooth bookmark that’s easy to use in whatever book you might be reading. 

This is a fun one to make for yourself or a kid in your life who is going back to school. But it would also be a fun teacher appreciation gift or holiday gift, especially for an English teacher but really anyone would like this one I think. 

You can grab the free chart and get all the instructions for assembling your own cross stitch pencil bookmark over at Our Daily Craft.
