Crafty Weekly Roundup! 9.27.2021 – 10.1.2021

Stash Additions - Oct. 03, 2021 - Jessica OklaRoots

This week on YouTube!

Such an incredible go-to tote bag! The Wool and Wax from Noodlehead is great for beginners and the perfect pattern to get you sew-jo back. I personally love it to test out new vinyl and fabric combinations!

The sweet folks over at Kimberbell were so kind to send me their current Bella Box, and I couldn't be more excited about all the goodies inside. They packed this box full of so much happiness!

It's Breast Cancer Awareness Month!

This month I have the opportunity to team up with some of the most amazing content creators and artists to help raise money for breast cancer research! ByAnnie is hosting their fabulous #sewPink initiative once again! So get ready for tons of crafty ideas and ways to support our community. To check out the schedule click here (spoiler: October 14th will be an OklaRoots tutorial going over a ByAnnie pattern... eeek!). 

Take care of those ta-tas my friends!!

New Stuff:

I know it seems like I have a new Wonderground order every week. But, well, I do. Gabbi is just keeps adding amazing new items to her shop! She's got some beautiful fabric available now and coming soon, as well as zipper tape, hardware (1.5" and 2" as well), and some adorable patches!

I was gifted the most amazing assortment of zipper pulls from Sew Majestic by Amber this week! I love the back to school and fall options, great for any teachers and bus drivers in your life!

It might seem like I have a fabric and zipper pull problem. But what I really have is a thread buying problem! I just can't resist these variegated colors. My latest order from Wizardry Stitchery is so festive, and I may have another box of fun threads on the way this week. Someone stop me!

Yes, this zip pouch is adorable. Yes, you can get Yes, this zip pouch is adorable.
Yes, you can get really creative with materials and appliqué.
Yes, it’s super scrap friendly.
Yes, it’s beginner friendly.
Yes, it’s ridiculously fun to make.

But if those reason aren’t enough for you to try the Real Lip Shady from @kazconadesigns then let me give you one more: It is an incredible, confidence boosting skill builder. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve shied away from patterns that have that back and forth curvy zipper, for fear of it not turning out ::just:: right.

But this pattern? Easy peasy! The measurements are perfect, the tips are spot on, and the curvy wurvy zipper is glorious. 

10/10! You gotta make this.
