This is the ideal book for when you feel like crafting, but don't want to take on something big or time-consuming. Enjoyable, relaxing crafts for all skill levels:
You can find my Plush Chocolate Bunny project on pages 22-23.
My little guy even got a mention on the back cover:
There are over 75 fun & other fast crafty projects included in the book. There's a bit of everything: sewing, crochet, polymer clay, paper, jewelry and loads of other crafty themes.
All project patterns & templates are included in the book, as well as some basic sewing, crochet & knitting techniques and their US & UK terms.
It's a great book for someone new to crafting, someone who likes to try different things or just pick up some new ideas for favorite types of crafts:
I'm really proud to included and thrilled that I can finally tell you about it now that it's out. It's a great feeling to walk in a bookstore, pull a book off the shelf and see my name in it:
You can buy Craft It Now in bookstores like Barnes and Noble, from online craft shops and on Amazon.
As a contributing author I got a few bonus copies that I've given to family members, but I have one more left....so how about a....

ReplyDeleteCheryl, the book looks fabulous. You should be so proud. Gosh I would be so proud to be in a book. Congratulations on such a great accomplishment.

ReplyDeleteIf your giveaway is for the US only you posted it in the wrong place on SewMamaSew
ReplyDeleteMy giveaway fits under "Supplies" in the Sew Mama Sew listings. They note that the giveaway post must state if you ship internationally or not (which mine says as US Only in the Rafflecopter form). The other category is called "Handmade - US Only" and this prize is definitely not handmade.
DeleteMy favorite type of craft is quilting! sarah@forrussia.org
ReplyDeleteGreat giveaway, thank you. My favourite is stiteries.
ReplyDeleteFor a while now, my favorite craft is crochet, but I also like to sew (usually things that are useful, but I want to get back into sewing clothes). I also love paper crafts...

ReplyDeleteI love all crafts but things to do with mess and myhands are the best!!!
ReplyDeleteAnything to do with buttons. I love decorating things with buttons. I buy them by the pound.
ReplyDeleteyou've posted this in the "willing to ship internationally" category, but then it says US only...?
ReplyDeleteSew Mama Sew incorrectly labeled the category for Supplies - US only as Handmade so it was unclear where to list this because it's obviously not handmade. I've alerted them and since moved my giveaway.
DeleteSewing and quilting, and knitting. Thanks for the chance!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite craft so far is quilting. But, I like sewing purses, kid's clothes, dolls, plush, and household items. Also, I am recently adventuring into polymer clay, which is very fun! I am interested to try knitting, though that may have to wait a bit...
