spend some time @ modern handcraft

I love having you come to visit my blog. In fact, you're welcome to stay here as long as you want, anytime you want (just stop moving my embroidery needle...I know it's gotta be you!). But sometimes, I like to encourage you to visit some other blogs that need to be on your radar.

And today, if you like fresh, modern sewing and quilting, you'll want to spend some time @ Modern Handcraft. Take a look at a sampling, and then look for a special treat from Nicole!



Lately, Modern Handcraft has been featuring all kinds of wonderful Halloween project. Some are simply to show you what she's made, like this table runner. Nicole shares a simple explanation of how to make one, but mainly it's pretty pictures!



But you'll also find some great tutorials, like this candy corn bunting. Don't you love it?



Of course, her hexies jump out at me, because...well, I'm entirely hooked on them. And more than a little jealous of these Star Wars and dancing monkey hexagons. Note to self: find Star Wars fabric!



Now, here's the exciting bit! Nicole has been making some fold-over bags, and she wants to give one to one lucky Wild Olive reader! The bag measures 10.5" wide and 11.5" tall unfolded. It has Faux leather accents and a metal zipper, and is way cute, yes?

You can enter with a blog comment, or get some bonus entries by following Wild Olive and Modern Handcraft (any way you follow is fine!).

Good luck, and thanks to Nicole! Now, go spend some time at Modern Handcraft! You won't regret it!
