Hello! My name is Sarah and I am currently an undergrad for Nutrition/ Dietetics.(I love health related stuffs!) As a poor college student, I also love to make random things useful! If I can make it without buying it, I will try it. :D I love learning new hobbies.

Some of my favorites are knitting, crocheting, sewing, costume design, decoupage, beading, wire jewelry, ceramics, scrap-booking, photography, quilling, gardening, sketching, leather working, basket-weaving, regular weaving, painting, etc.

I also love my cat, a good book, and a cup of tea.

craft interests: crochet, fashion, gifts, home decorating, jewelry making, knitting, paper crafts, restyle, sewing, quilling

Re: Eco-lovely Bag

how thick did you cut your bags and what size hook? ive been attempting my own rendition and am a little concerned that it wont hold up to any significant weight. yours is a little chunkier than mine (i like it!) so i was curious. :D

Re: denim messenger bag from pair of jeans

Well done! i've made a "jeans bag" before and it didn't turn out quite as nice. I'm assuming you used a machine? I don't think mine likes thick or heavier fabrics so much. do you know of anything i can swap out to change that, perhaps?
