Go big or go home
Hi, I'm PickingupEllen, teacher of the fundamentals (English, maths, social skills...), fanfic writer (I have a website), musician, artist and crafter, and I have an issue with keeping my crafts small... When Karin invited me to write a guest post I accepted with a wave of excitement at getting to show off the things I have …
Is It Sunday Again Already?
This week seems to have run away from me completely. I honestly don't recall very much of what I've done. Certainly haven't managed to get any crafting done, though we did catch up on housework, so there's that. Since I don't have anything crafty to share (I did finally get a new hook, so I …
When Ideas Don’t Quite Work Out
Or at least, they don't work out as well as they did in your head. The first go around. What am I talking about, you ask? I have several pairs of jeans that I can't wear anymore because I do not like holes in my jeans and, well... a thigh gap I have not, so... …
Cross stitching!
Hello all! My name is Melody, and I can usually be found on FB playing games (Royal Story is pretty fun), reading fics on AO3, reading books, or doing crafty type stuff. My preferred crafts are counted cross-stitch and some occasional crocheting. My most recent completed project is a counted cross-stitch saying. Honestly, there …

And …
Guest Post!
Hi all! Let me start by introducing myself. My name’s Melissa, and I’m a college English instructor, fangirl, yarn person (knitting and crochet), musician, and when I have time, a home cook. I’m a part time instructor, which sadly doesn’t mean I only work sometimes; I teach or tutor five days a week (with meetings …

Simple Hat
My name is Kaz, and I am your friendly, neighborhood geeky crafter. The lovely Naelany asked me to contribute a little something, and I hope you like it. I have a variety of things I enjoy with my free time: reading/writing fanfic, playing in photoshop, and video editing in the fandoms of Farscape, SG-1/SGA, and …
