That Crafty Girl From Ohio

Good Evening Everyone! First let me say, excuse any grammar or spelling mistakes in this post.  It was composed on my phone and my thumbs are not best typists. Posting in excitement tonight.  Let me start from the beginning.  A few days ago I started working on a little cross stitch.  I love Kirby. Some might say I am obsessed.  I found a pattern (it was actually for perler beads) I kinda liked.  I altered the color scheme for the embroidery threads in my collection.

Now to the point of my post.  I have been featured over at Crafty Amino and my cross stitch has made the featured page.  Too exciting.  I have been posting there for a few months a...

I have been dabbling a little in graphic design and vector drawing and I figured I would share some of the images I came up with.  These posts are all going to be known as blog swag.

Here at CassandraCae Crochet, a few changes are going to be happening in the next weeks.  After much thought, time, and feedback I have decided to change the name of this blog to "That Crafty Girl From Ohio." With the name change comes a fun new logo change. This is the same great website but with a few more added features and topics.  I spend a lot of time making things.  So that I may create more posts and tutorials for all of you, I decided to spread out and now I will be writing about a lot more things.

I apologize to all my readers.  I know I have been absent for a while but just know, NEW THINGS ARE COMING.  Stay tuned for all the new stuff I have in store in 2015.  It's going to be great. Stay Tuned!  This is not just another abandoned blog.
