Crafty Roundup! February 2022

Stash Additions - Mar. 02, 2022 - Jessica OklaRoots

(click image for link to shops/patterns/tutorials)

This month on YouTube!

I've had this Cricut Explore 3 in its' box for an embarrassing amount of time, so I figured we could open it up and see how it can help us in bag making!

Who doesn't love a free pattern? And a QUICK one?! I've got you covered. You're going to love this project. 

The New Stuff:

I'm LOVING these 8-bit feeling sweater prints from Fabric Mail! 

I was searching for a washi tape holder, and came across this great device from Galen Leather! They have so many unique options.

More...

Zipper Valley is one of my top go-to zipper suppliers. They always have the most pleasing colors that will work in any bag. 

Oooo these zippers and webbing from Idle Blooms are SO VIBRANT! I'm so excited to use these in some fun projects. 

I flipped out when I opened this box of COLOR from My Handmade Space! These neon zippers and the incredible assortment of zipper pulls are screaming summer. 

Not sewing related, but magical accents are always a fun thing to share. BBBrooke offers some of my favorite ears and watch band accessories. 

We all know how much I love Sewfuse from Castine Handcrafted, and I was lucky to score some recently. But Monica also sells all kinds of back hardware, notions, and handmade items!

    Hi, you had shown in stories some really cool webbing that were pastel colors and stripes. What month did you have those in your roundup?

    Thank you!

The BEST 30 minute bag!

We’ve got a man bag this week! Ok, this is NOT a We’ve got a man bag this week!

Ok, this is NOT a bag that’s just for the men. But I get asked constantly for bag suggestions for sons, husbands, brothers, etc. And while I do love to see a man rocking a colorful bag, I understand that neutral is a favorite option for most people in general.

Honestly? College Jess would have bought this bag in a second! I love how the Chris Satchel has that unique flap on the front with the strap to keep it tucked against the bag. The side anchors look so cool extending all the way up from the bottom. And the size is great for work and school. Once again, @uhohcreations hit this pattern out of the park!

The full kit for this bag is part of May’s @bagmakingbeesclub Bee Box and I’m obsessed with this water resistant oxford! It almost looks like a linen but is much easier to work with and maintain. 

Let me know what you’re working on this week!

Happy Halfway To Halloween! In honor of the beginn Happy Halfway To Halloween! In honor of the beginning of the Halloween season (don’t argue with me about this) I made myself a spoooooky themed quilt block using some of my favorite fabric!

Curved blocks seem hard, but once you try this method you’ll have them down in no time. 

Finished block size is 8.5“ x 8.5“ (including the final seam allowance)

Templates are from the Magic Maker QUILT set (not the appliqué), size LARGE in Shop OklaRoots. The ones I’m using are for the Ears portion, but you could use the larger face curved blocks in the set to make an even bigger block. 

Material is quilt cotton from the Nightshade line from @tulapink .

This is a quick make that is great for quilt cotton and can be used in a number of ways. I’ve seen lots of you excited to use this for knitting and crochet needles! My kids would put their stationary items in it. And I would use this for all my skinny tools that are constantly rolling around my table 🥴. Oh, you can also use it for makeup and paint brushes!

Let me know if you whip one up! It’s a really fun sew-jo booster.

13 minutes of me yapping about my 🍑 . Here’s how 13 minutes of me yapping about my 🍑 . 

Here’s how my first colonoscopy prep went down! If it’s time for you get this checkup, make sure to make that appointment. It’s not a fun 24 hours but can help prevent a whole lot of other problems. 

Colon cancer runs in my family and I’ve seen the impacts it can cause if not caught early. 45 is the recommended age for your first scan, but if you have symptoms and/or a family history, you may want to get this done sooner. I’m 41 and so glad I did this now. My Dr. said he had his first at 37, so there is no shame in staying on top of this sooner than later. 

Take care of your booties!
