1. Traditions

These are the crafts passed from generation to generation, with roots early in our history when crafting was more functional, but no less fun! Projects include: Foam Quilt Block - Who says quilting is just with fabric! Arrange colored squares of foam to make interesting patterns and a great door sign for your room; Brown Bag Appliqué Cat - This project is just purr-fect, and you'll even learn basic stitching and appliqué with paper; You've "Woven" My Heart - Weaving takes all different forms, and here's a new twist. Watch carefully and make a paper heart pocket; Decorated Candle - Candle making is the traditional craft, but candle decorating is just for today. Did you know you can paint on wax?; Functional Family - A system of interlocking gears makes a perfect family wall-hanging to illustrate working together; Editor's Feature - Apples are not just for eating! Carve your way to very expressive dolls; Hands-On Project - The "Paper Doll Project." 07DR PI 30 min.
