A good time for hand crafting

The governor of Michigan just closed all the schools. Many people are going to be wondering how to entertain the kids without the tv or video games being on 24/7. Now is a great time to spend crafting and teaching children basic sewing skills! In the spirit of finding the silver lining, I’m offering a 19% discount on all crafting patterns. Simply use this discount code at checkout: covid19.

Here are a few pattern suggestions for kids: Swirly Turtle, Lindwyrm, Tibbles the elephant, Graveyard Angel Barrette, or for more advanced kids the Maned Bookworm might be a good choice!

If you’ve got crayons, markers, or colored pencils hanging around, you can download this illustration to color! Or make a Shrinky Dink tag to hand on your backpack or glue a pin to the back! However you decide to use it, just remember that it is for your personal use only.

There are also free softie sewing patterns available–just search for “Free Softie”.

Enjoy this forced schoolcation, and happy creating!
