Some of the blogs I love Pt 1

March 29, 2012 Jennie Comments Off on Some of the blogs I love Pt 1

I have been getting more and more into reading amazing, inspiring, beautiful blogs about sewing, crochet, knitting, and photography with some graphic design ones thrown in for good measure.

And today I want to share some of these with you. Not all at the same time as frankly there are quite a few of them, and it would be overwhelming, and anyway, you would probably give up after 5! So I will do them in installments. Today is part 1. By the way these are in no particular order and those in part 3 are in no way any less gorgeous or give less joy than those in part 1!

So here goes:

Pink Penguin 

Fab site full of great colourful stitching stuff, including great tutorials, of among others this adorable purse:

Great sewing blog, this one has onspired me to take part in the Zakka Style Sew-Along (see new badge on the sidebar). I bought the book the other day and boy do I love it!

  This lady has a serious addictive way with crochet, and colours. Yummy. Check out her blog for amazing inspiring posts and photography.
 

The happy zombie

 I LOVE this site, the logo, the fabrics she prints, the colours, it just makes me smile. One talented woman!

Orange you lucky
