Crafty Weekly Roundup! 9.13.2021 – 9.17.2021

Stash Additions - Sep. 19, 2021 - Jessica OklaRoots

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

This week on YouTube!

One of the COOLEST wallets I've seen out there, this skull wallet is quick and easy.  A great project to get comfortable with vinyl!

In case you missed it: Last week we had a Basics video added to the list, all about key fobs! These cuties are quick and easy, and with the right tools they'll last for ages!

New Stuff:

More...

Gabbi is adding AMAZING new items to Wonderground Fabrics every week! She has some of the most vibrant and unique webbings out there, and now carries some super fun glow in the dark embroidery thread. And you didn't hear it from me.... but I heard a rumor that vinyl is coming. Shhhh!

Want to build your stash? Get a little somthin' special every month? This amazing subscription box from the Freaking Fabulous Fabric Club is for you! This month was obviously a big deal to me!

Hate curating all the vinyl, fabric, hardware and interfacing when all you want to do is just make the bag?! This is for you then! Two Sisters Textiles are offering some extremely fun bag making kits to get you started right away. Check out their Facebook Group for more info!

I might quite literally drown in zipper pulls soon, but that doesn't stop me from ordering more! How could I resist these incredible game inspired pulls from Sew Dulce?? I'm loving how creative artists are getting with these!

While prepping for a tutorial, I came across this set of 4 hoops for the Brother PE800. It has a couple very small hoops, a backup 5x7 and an even larger hoop. Not sure the larger hoop will be an option with my machine, but I'm willing to give it a shot!

Some extra fun stuff!

By now, you're probably aware how much I love my snacks! We decided to sign up for the Snack Crate, and it's been SO much fun trying sweet and salty items from all over the world! We've already received our German box, and this one here is from Hong Kong. This would be a great holiday gift!

The only way to prevent a comical amount of holiday decor from filling up our home is for me to keep my butt out of Target. I have zero self control. But to get my fix and add a few new items for the season, I signed up for the Steal It Box from Decor Steals! Every few months a box full of seasonal decor arrives, and so far it's REALLY cute items!

Just kidding 😂 But I will admit, I spend 8-10 hours doing this for each pattern. After thousands of step ups on my kitchen chair I’m going to be angry if my 🍑 isn’t looking better.

Time for Giveaway Bundle Number 6! This box has Time for Giveaway Bundle Number 6! 

This box has SO many fun goodies! It was hard to get it all in one photo. I do need to note, however, that the large clear template in the very back unfortunately broke, so it will not be included. 

To enter this giveaway answer the following question: 

Name a pattern or design (bag or quilt) that you would suggest for someone who is just starting out sewing. Something easy yet satisfying to get them into this craft. 

For me, I always recommend the Itty Bitty Boxy Bag. Yes, I know it's my own pattern, but that little stinker is CUTE and quick. The perfect gateway bag to our world 😉. 

The Rules:

It’s the perfect size for quick trips, kiddos, travel and gifting. And it’s so much fun to mix and match vinyl scraps, coming up with a new look each time.

This is also the Jan/Feb Bag Making Babe Box, which I’m referring to as the Bestie Box! You’ll have everything you need to make two coordinating Brooke wallets. Perfect for Galentine’s Day!

Ok, easy question to answer for this:

What sewing project are you currently working on? Or if you're in between projects, what's next? A bag? A quilt? Let us know! And if you can tell us the designer and/or pattern name that would be great too. Let's all build a list of fun projects to work on this winter.

I just finished a Totes Cute Tote today and my next project is an easy wallet. It's a custom pattern (by yours truly) that will hopefully come together as planned and can be shared with everyone soon.
