Thursday, Sept. 29: Your Fab Five. Share your favorite bloggers/besties and tell us what you love about them! Share a link and give a shout out.

Abby Glassenberg blog, While She Naps, is one of the first blogs I started following. She had great tips on blogging and craft blogs. She is one of the founders of the Craft Industry Alliance.

Stephanie Woodson’s blog, Swoodsonsays, is a site for instilling creativity. She has a Try Something New Every Month challenge that I am participating in. It got me knitting again.

Carissa Knits is a knitting and refashioning blog. I love the things Carissa comes up with.  She is a very creative refashioner.

Confessions of a Refashionista is presently on hiatus.  She has made an international move.  But she has many tutorials you can view on her refashioning.   Hopefully, she will be back soon.

I have always loved Wil Wheaton ever since I saw him on Star Trek, The Next Generation.  He is very candid about his struggles with depression and anxiety.

Who else should I follow? Do you have any recommendations?

    I have a couple more classes coming up at Pine Tree Quilt Shop.

  • The Math Quilt

    ByCatherine

    At least that’s what I call it. It was made by one of my customers who has a math degree. She made it for a nephew, who is also a mathematician. It’s his wedding present to another mathematician.  So it is perfect! The basic quilt is an enlargement of another quilt she made.  Then she…
