Lots of Links!

I actually got a ton of stuff done ono my non-crafting to-do list this weekend, so today I'm off to the fabric store. Don't worry, it's for Christmas gift crafts, so I'm totally justified. I will even make a list first, so I'm not too tempted to overspend. In the meantime, I've got a few awesome links for you to check out!



First, Sew Much Ado posted the CopyCat challenge finalists. These projects are just fantastic! I think the copy looks better than the inspiriation in lots of cases, and there's lots of tutorials to go with.

Next, Fireflies and Jellybeans posted the secret ingredient for Round 7 of the Iron Crafter. It's clothespins! I've got too many gifts to make in a short time over here, so I won't be entering this round. Clothespins used to be my favorite crafting medium when I was a little kid though...clothespin dogs, clothespin dolls...that was probably the first clue that I'd be a compulsive crafter some day. :)

Belts probably get the least attention in the crafting world, but Christie at A Lemon Squeezy Home featured a Belt Week Challenge this week! The winners are up, and their creations are fantastic.  Check out this one by No Big Dill:
