New: Tutorials Page
A couple of days ago I added a new page to this blog – Tutorials.
I’ll be compiling a list of great free tutorials that can be found on the Internet. Hopefully some of you will get inspired by the compiled projects!
Already stressed about Christmas presents?
Well, I have already thought about them too. And I came across a few on-line tutorials that inspired me to hand craft most of my presents this year.
I especially love this necklace (the full title: Louis Vuitton “Knock Off” Fabric Bead Necklace) by froo*gal.
I think I am going to start doing a few of those for selected girlfriends this weekend, as soon as my exam on Friday has been passed (hopefully successfully ).
I also fell in love with this bag by A Mingled Yarn, that’s originally a diaper bag but will be adapted to work as a map / book bag for me to take all my stuff to university with me:
And someone will also be presented with fabric covered magnets by jcaroline creative! as a christmas gift. Aren’t they just gorgeous:
Oh, and I really have to go to a jumble sale. I need album cover sleeves for this great organizing idea:
And to satisfy all cravings for sweets, I’ll try out these great sounding cookies by have cake, will travel!. Hopefully it will not a ‘frustration feast’ after my exam… 
Don’t they just sound great: White Chocolate Lime Cookies!
So, have a great second part of the week!
Big plans
This weekend I am so busy I sadly won’t have the time to spare to get out my sewing machine and start a new project. But with all these great tutorials around I have already composed a list of future projects I hope to realize soon. And as we all know, Christmas is also coming up sooner or later. Better start now…

One more thing:
I’ve been thinking for a long time about doing my first roast chicken as I have never tackled one of those before. I found this recipe that is labeled “foolproof” and might just be the one for me.
I’ll let you know if it worked for me too once I get the time and the occasion to try it out.
