Back in December (in the hustle and bustle of the holidays!), I received copies of the new craft book I compiled! It’s called kraft-tex Creations — Sew 18 Projects with Vegan Leather.

Make sure you scroll to the end for your chance to win a copy of the NEW book, plus 3 rolls of kraft-tex (from C&T Publishing) and a gorgeous Madeira Thread gift box (courtesy of my sponsor Baby Lock)!

Order Kraft-tex Creations at Amazon, CTPub.com & Barnes & Noble

 

If you’ve never worked with kraft-tex, it’s a paper-fabric hybrid that has many irresistible qualities. First, you can print designs and text on it (with paint or a computer printer). This alone leads to so many creative possibilities. But you can also stitch through it like fabric, adding embroidery or a quilted pattern. Some designers carve their own stamps and try block printing on kraft-tex. Others use it as an animal-friendly leather alternative to accessories bags, keychains, laptop cases, etc.

Baby Shoes by Vera Therrell

When compiling this project for Stash Books, I approached some designers I knew and had worked with before, and found some great talent on Facebook via a kraft-tex sewing fan page. The submitted projects ranged widely in scope and aesthetic, and I worked with the editorial team to carefully choose a variety of projects that would appeal to designers of all skills levels and crafting backgrounds, including modern and traditional sewists, quilters, embroiderers, and mixed media crafters.

Celestial Coasters by Stephanie Woodson

The result: 12 modern projects plus 6 bonus ideas from bags and wallets to coasters and embroidered bracelets — something for everyone!

Clear instructions are included for each project, and the contributing designers share their best tips on how to sew and create with kraft-tex! Want to take a peek inside?

Something for everyone, right?! Coasters, a luminary, bracelets, wallets, baby shoes, a fridge organizer, zipper pouches, purses, a necklace, wall flags, and even a mini suitcase!

Hi, I’m Lindsay Conner, an author, modern quilter, editor, and founder of the Lindsay Sews blog. I’m a Baby Lock ambassador and Stash Books author who loves writing modern sewing and quilt patterns for beginners and weekend sewists! I live in Indianapolis, Indiana with my husband, son, and two loveable cats, Murph and Chloe. I’ve been crafting for as long as I can remember. As a kid, I saved my dollar bills for trips with my mom to Jo-Ann Fabrics, where I’d find new floss for friendship bracelets or mini cross-stitch kits. Because my mom has always shared my love for crafting, she bought me my first sewing machine, a Hello Kitty Janome.
