For all the juicy tips on how to turn a turtleneck sweater into this trendy little number make sure to pick up the March/April 2010 issue of the magazine for the full directions! The Hooping Knits in the video section of the site may be a good one to watch as you sit down for this quick make-over. This is a great issue to have as they are celebrating Earth Day and will have some green (eco-friendly) crafting projects as well.

I was like a little girl who just found out I was getting the pony I've wanted my whole life. Electric Quilt Company and Amy Butler one of my favorite designers of all time have teamed up to offer this amazing new product called Softwares. In the package includes an interactive CD with 22 new projects for your home. Quilts, purses, and pillows all with the ability to personalize them in Amy's fabrics before you even buy the yardage! Amy Butler has kept her eco-friendly practices by putting this all on CD and eliminating unneeded paper printing.  

You can pre-order the Softwares now on her website and they will be available May 15th!
