Description

Marrying the new mum's desire to bond and the community spirit of crafting - think reading groups, Stitch 'n Bitch knitting circles, and, of course, playgroups - is "CRAFTY MAMA", a unique idea in DIY and a full-colour guide filled with baby-related projects, essential techniques, tips on how to form a group, wisdom, inspiration, and camaraderie.Abby Pecoriello launched the first-ever crafting club for new mums during her maternity leave. The concept proved to be such a hit that in the two and a half years since, she's led hundreds of sold-out Crafty Mamas classes throughout New York City. Now, in this spirited, witty book, she provides the how-to for women to form their own Crafty Mamas groups, from learning the best ways to reach out to other new mums in the area, to the nuts-and-bolts of running the group: setting a budget, buying tools and supplies, choosing a venue, and more. Then come the projects-49 hip, no-sew craft ideas that are inexpensive and easy to make, and will delight moms and babies alike: "Light the Night" nightlight, No-Sew Swanky Blankies, The Poncherello, Photo Au Go Go Bracelets, Hip Purses, Insta-Bibs, Peek-a-Books, and Photo Bragnets.
