Come behind the scenes at Dixie DIY and tour Dixie's sewing room in Austin, Texas.
My favorite thing about my room is that it's all mine and no one else's! Well, I occasionally share it with my cat. I love that I can shut the door and forget about the mess lurking within.

My particular way of working I developed when at home looking after my two, now adult, children, Leaving Art school in the sixties I had intended to become a painter, but a practical necessity to make heavy curtains led me to composing images in cloth and develop a love of folk art. By chance I was offered the opportunity to exhibit my work and continued to do so to this day.
We head to Swindon to meet Caz whose current crafting love is felt!
How did you find CO+K and why did you join?
I found CO&K while looking for ideas and new projects to make. I thought the site was fantastic as it was the first site I had come across were I could share my own patterns with other crafters. I had always loved making patterns and this was the first site I ever used to share them.
What projects are you currently working on?
I am currently working on a collection of large felt unusual animals. So far I’ve made a Tortoise and Anteater and in the process of designing an Aardvark. I also like to work on smaller side projects including a unicorn hanging decoration and stacking elephant family. I would also like to make a range felt birds.

I love the comfy look of Leonard and Sheldon's apartment, plenty of storage, lots of shelving units filled with books and of course all the comic book collectibles and sci fi film memorabilia dotted around. I could quite happily live here myself.

Rotterdam has a lot to offer, there’s something in it for everyone. From shops, parks, restaurants to entertainment, high-tech architecture and a subway. Many hot spots are located in the city center, on walking distance from each other. I especially love the places where you can enjoy a good cup of coffee and a tasty sandwich.
Come behind the scenes at The Crafted Life and tour Rachel's craft room & office in Portland, Oregon.
I'd have to say the size! After living in San Francisco (and working from home in my 400 sq ft apt) for a few years it feels good to finally have the space to spread out while I work.
