With a little over a month until Christmas, you still have some time to make some of these quick and easy Christmas potholders. Use them yourself or give as hostess gifts or stocking stuffers. Each of the potholders in this project takes flannel fabric and quilt batting, plus [...]

Trims by the yard and large-motif trims are great for use in making Christmas ornaments, greeting cards and gift items. A burlap wall hanging or a greeting card made out of construction paper can have candles of woven-braid trim, each topped by a flickering flame (a single notch from gold rickrack makes a perfect flame).

Now that school has started, we all know that fall and winter will be coming right up — not to mention the rainy and chilly days where the younger non-school children will be forced to stay inside. Sounds like the beginnings of “cabin fever” to me. What I’m doing right now, and would like to suggest [...]

When was the last time you saw, or used, a real oilcloth tablecloth? The kind that your Mom and Grandma used to use. Those things used to clean up like a charm — nothing like the paper kind we get now, or try to use cotton table cloths that get so stained they are beyond [...]
