Aren’t fifth Fridays great? As you know, here at Mr X Stitch we have plenty of action on the other four Fridays, so when a fifth Friday comes along we get all excited and just have to have a giveaway!
And have we got some juicy prizes for three lucky winners!
First up we have a $50 gift voucher from our friends at Urban Threads who, incidentally, have got a free Valentine’s Day pattern available for download at the moment!
Next up, you could win a free pattern from Stitchalicious! The Virgins Series come from a collaboration with a Berlin-based Chilean artist and come with a offset printed pattern on cardstock, fabric, needle and DMC threads.
As well as being a pattern maker and a Stumpwork genius, Stitchalicious (also known as Alien Ted) runs embroidery classes in Berlin and has got one on 4th February for beginners. There’s more information on her site.
And last, but by no means least, you could win one of Leethal’s Connect the Dots Embroidery kits! Beefranck gave you the full SP on those little beauties earlier today, so you know exactly what you’re going to win already!
“So,” I hear you ask, “what do I have to do to win one of those wonderful prizes?” Well it goes a little something like this…
We want to know what your favourite non-stitchy craft blogs and sites are. We want to get our name out and about on the coolest crafting blogs and although we’ve got a good rep with some of the classic crafting sites, we want more. So all you have to do is leave a comment with the names of crafty sites that you can’t live without.
We’ll keep the comments open until midnight on 4th February at which point we will use a random number generator to pick out three winners. The winner will be contacted by email so make sure we’ve got your address. One prize per winner. Easy peasy.
Good luck!
If you like this post, share it with your favourite social sites!

Craftster is the only one for me!
I follow Craft and Make with regularity, and will often peek in on Badder Homes & Gardens (not really DIY, but often inspirational).
My top favorite is probably Pumpkin Wizards (carvingpumpkins.com) – I’m a pumpkin-carving fiend in the fall and work on both real and artificial ‘kins. They offer great patterns and a forum full of the most informative carving experts out there!
Another site I love is matrices.net for their tutorials on costume-making – even down to building your own fans to put in mascot-style heads. These guys have helped me out with many a Comic-Con creation.
And I don’t know if knitting counts as stitching, but if not, I must mention Knitting Today (knittingtoday.com). As a machine knitter I have found their site and forum invaluable (although I’ve given myself over to machine embroidery in the past year and don’t really go there currently).
I love geekcrafts.com, and chicaandjo.com.
my favourite crafty hangout is the crafter…oo forum crafter…oo forum lots of friendly crafters covering many different crafts
as for non-stitchy blogs i love inside a blackapple and thompson family-life
OMG! There’s so many I have almost 200 craft related blogs filtering through my Google reader. A few I must read are:
Diary of A Crafty Chica http://thecraftychica.blogspot.com/
Dollar Store Crafts http://dollarstorecrafts.com/
A Beautiful Mess http://abeautifulmess.typepad.com/my_weblog/
Just Something I Made http://justsomethingimade.blogspot.com/
my favourite go to site for crafting is craftster
I love modpodgerocks.blogspot.com. Anything that involves mod podge be it stitching, furniture refinishing, cards… who wouldn’t love that? Also geekcrafts.com and spritestitch.com ( spritestitch isn’t just stitchy). Also love SEI, and have a huge list of card crafting blogs. Craftfail.com makes me feel better when I have a “fail.”
And oh my goodness would I love any of those prizes. Fabulous stuff! Thank you so much for sharing and for cluing us all in to awesome things happening and selling in the stitchy world!
I love my google reader!!

http://westcoastcrafty.wordpress.com/
Does Ravelry count? Because I wish there was a site like Ravelry for every crafty pursuit. It’s such a fantastic resource.
Threadbanger.com is pretty cool too, though it makes me feel a bit old sometimes.
a day without these two sites is a day not well spent: oneprettything.com and burdastyle.com
Some of the sites I like are:
Craftster
Mod Podge Rocks
Ravelry
Threadbanger
One Pretty Thing
Geek Crafts
Thanks for a fabulous fifth Friday.
Grace
There are so many beautiful craftblogs in germany, you can find lot´s of then in my blogroll. international i like http://howaboutorange.blogspot.com/
greets from cold and really snowy hamburg!
claudia
http://sewmamasew.com/, http://www.purlbee.com/ & http://www.oneprettything.com/
You should also check out http://theanticraft.com/blog/
Some equally beautiful and hideous pieces on this site, thankfully it’s mostly the former.
http://beadlust.blogspot.com/
I don’t know if somebody already mentioned her, but I just love RomanSock… http://littlegreen.typepad.com/romansock/
My favorite crafty blogs is done by one of my favorite people on the internet: Jennifer Ofenstein. She runs Sewhooked.org and her blog is – http://blog.sewhooked.org/
There are all sorts of tutorials and the site is a must for Harry Potter crafters!
Craftster is my fave stop for inspiration of the stitchy AND non-stitchy sort. Fabulous crafty community and so many awesome artists in one place!
CraftGossip is another spot that is great for finding out what is going on in the crafty blogosphere.
Cakewrecks gives me a great laugh over not-so-great baked treats.
kickass prizes! wow!
my favourite non-stitchy crafty site is facebook…
i only follow blogs that post on facebook cause i can’t keep up with anything else! (i’m being slightly facetious, but not entirely)
i like the anticraft, though i only really check it out when new issues come out. http://theanticraft.com/index.htm
whip up is a good overall source of tutes and new books and stuff. (and they send out an e-mail for people like me who are massively behind on their google readers and will probably never catch up in this lifetime)
http://whipup.net/
i adore meghan at queering domesticity because she posts about crafty stuff, but intelligently, and with a social conscience. i wish there were 100s more blogs just like hers! http://www.queeringdomesticity.com/
and i like inside a black apple for eye candy.
http://theblackapple.typepad.com/inside_a_black_apple/
http://www.pickleroad.com
Mark Lipinski’s site and blog. He cracks me up!
Crafty Chica and One Pretty Thing and Ikea Hackers.
Awesome giveaway…I need to get back to some stitchin’…
As for sites…so many I could list….two I didn’t see listed yet:
http://craftgossip.com is great for tutorial round ups…
http://allthingsdigiscrap.blogspot.com is awesome for digital craftiness freebie finds
And people already mentioned some of my other faves like One Pretty Thing, Purl Bee…Craftster (of course)…Sew Mama Sew, Geek Crafts
Generally design/ pretty things-related… Decor8. Non-sewy forum: Craftster. And Regretsy for the hall of shame, if that counts.
Grtz Gila
My favorite crafty website would have to be http://www.diaperdivas.proboards.com I have made many friends here and have learned a lot about sewing diapers as well as clothes and much more!
http://www.yellena.com/newgallery/drawings/gallery_allusion.html
http://www.junkmailgreetings.com/
http://www.kellishouse.blogspot.com/
These are gooders that I discovered through Etsy… and I find more gems all the time. But I’ll be sure to check out all the other faves here! Good ideas! xo Shauna
Lets see…
I love Craftster, BurdaStyle (not just clothes sewing), Threads, Urban Threads, Craft Test Dummies, craftzine, Knitty, Black Apple and fashion blogs of people that also make stuff like Garbage Dress who makes awesome harnesses.
I love http://craftymamasonline.blogspot.com/ as a great blog about lots of crafty things
The coolest noncraft blog? Are there noncraft blogs? Yes, I know there are. Right now, I think this young physician’s blog is important and very interesting – this isn’t grey’s anatomy — http://sleepydoctor.blogspot.com/. And there is always Pioneer Woman Cooks; just got the book today – http://thepioneerwoman.com/. I’m hoping for the Urban Threads certificate!
I absolutely adore Ravelry. I can–and have done–spend HOURS on there, and still find new and entertaining stuff.
I like http://www.redpepperquilts.com/ and http://treefalldesign.typepad.com/tree_fall/
and http://www.sewn.net.au/Default.aspx
I read many more blogs though. Awesome giveaway!
Check out http://www.outsapop.com/
It’s an awesome blog!
I’m addicted to theanticraft.com, though I know they already love you guys – thier blog is how I found mrxstitch in the first place
I also love the knit graffiti at http://outdoorknit.blogspot.com/ and the amigurumi awesomeness of http://www.planetjune.com/blog/
Gotta be whipup.net, Pip at meet me at mikes (http://meetmeatmikes.com/), and the toysociety.blogspot.com
http://pipersgirls.wordpress.com/ has awesome stuff – yay for Fifth Friday Festivals!
I go to geekcrafts.com every day!
I prefer http://www.5erg.com/.
She’s done a lot of different stuff, but she’s not much of a sewing person, either than her adorable needle felting projects. ^_^
SewMamaSew.com has a TON of great stuff! They compile all kinds of crafty people, and feature them. Lots of great minds + lots of free projects = AWESOME!
. . . You know, all my favorite non-stitchy craft blogs are personal knit blogs, and frankly I’m not sure that you and http://www.yarnharlot.ca are very compatible. :/ There’s always http://www.craftypod.com, I suppose.
They have some great designs for machine embroidery at good prices, everything from Celtic to cats to kids.
Crafty sites I love: Ravelry and Craftster, Cut Out & Keep, and for blogs:
Leethal’s Do Stuff, Chickpea’s Sewing Studio, My Paper Crane, The Yarn Harlot, Ysolda and Sprite Stitch.
http://www.howaboutorange.blogspot.com
http://www.whipup.net
http://www.penguinandfish.blogspot.com
My fave non-stitchy crafty arty blog is HIgh Up In The Trees, where Melbourne collage artist Gracia Haby shares her wonderful work and inspirations.
http://gracialouise.typepad.com/high_up_in_the_trees/
A great site with an awesome group of people! Sewing, machine embroidery, quilting, swaps and so much more. Try it you will love it!
inspirationalbeading.blogspot.com
I’m a bead addict — I love looking at her little dishes of beads almost as much as the finished products!
I read craftster, whipup, sewmamasew, glueandglitter.com, craftinginagreenworld, and craftastrophe every day. And of course, my own little blog (shameless plug, yes, I know)… great giveaway!
One of my favorite craft blogs is Corvus Tristis (http://corvustristis.livejournal.com/ , if that link doesn’t work). She does do stitchy things, and even posts awesome free embroidery designs, but she also dabbles in jewelry, sewing, polymer clay, and even a wee bit of metalsmithing! A multicrafter after my own heart.
http://www.splitcoaststampers.com
Great ideas!
My favorites bar, at the tippy top, is Craftzine (http://blog.craftzine.com/) which I cannot not look at for over 2 days or I go through withdrawl. ALSO, the longthread (longthread.com) is way cool too with “make it mondays”.
Also love pattern review . com
http://www.patternreview.com
They have everything – sort of

Because I love reading the Selfish Seamstresses blog at selfishseamstress.wordpress.org
Apart from that, there’s a German blog, http://machwerke.blogspot.com/, which I also like.
A site great for knitting is http://www.knitty.com, it’s a free online mag which the most fabulous knitting patterns.

These guys here… http://handembroiderynetwork.blogspot.com/ have been invaluable in helping me learn to do more than 3 stitches!
http://www.swakembroidery.com/ is a favourite offshoot from http://www.youcanmakethis.com/
Hmmm… maybe I spend too much time on craft websites…
Oh! And crafster of course. That was how I found this place, actually.
I would have to say my favourite non-stitchy craft sites are:
threadbanger.com
geekcrafts.com
and of course……. regretsy.com (If the even counts!)
http://extremecards.blogspot.com/ is a fun one!
So many good sites, I’d have to say:
sewmamasew.com, craftster, oneprettything.com and instructables.com
Thanks for the contest

ReadyMade Magazine. http://www.readymade.com/
Angry Chicken http://angrychicken.typepad.com/angry_chicken/
Curbly: http://www.curbly.com/ (I guess it’s more design themed, but it’s still a neat place.)
How About Orange: http://howaboutorange.blogspot.com/
I’m just starting to explore my new embroidery machine – any suggestions for websites with designs a little more audacious than the usual Sunbonnet Sue designs?
I’m loving what I see on Urban Threads!
I’m a regular reader of whipup.net and sewmamasew.com.
I’m in the boring minority, but I love craftster and visit it often!
I justrecently discovered Urban Threads. Love, love, love! Not yer grandmother’s embroidery and crafts
I should not go through the link already posted because that will waste so much time and I would have to add so many to my lists that it would waste more of the time EVERYDAY that I am supposed to be doing other things, like swaps and cleaning and oh, taking care of my kids!
So here are some of my daily goodies for you:
http://daisyyellow.squarespace.com/
http://artmind-etcetera.blogspot.com/
http://daisyyellow.squarespace.com/
http://alittlehut.blogspot.com/
http://resurrectionfern.typepad.com/resurrection_fern/
I love Craftster, of course. I check out WhipUp, The LongThread, Design*Sponge, Craftzine’s blog. I also set my StumbleUpon to crafts or sewing and find lots of cool stuff that way.
I’m very fond of both http://geekcrafts.com and http://www.pixelgasm-forum.com/. :]
I really like to design and sew my own clothing, I also love to craft, I will admit that I love to embroidery I take things that I buy at clothing stores on sale and embroidery things on them also I make things from notjing to something.My favorite bog debra@emblibrary , it has free things to down load,By the way I also enjoy Urban Threads.
One of my favorite blogs is Craft Leftovers, which has some embroidery/sewing, is mostly about using up your leftovers to make something new. And I know her in person. http://www.craftleftovers.com/blog/
Another is How About Orange: http://howaboutorange.blogspot.com/
And The Anti-Craft: http://theanticraft.com/blog/
I just love favecraft quick and crafty, Urban Threads, GeekCrafts, E-PatternCentrals.com,

I can’t live without Ravelry, Craft, Craftster, Yarn Harlot, Sublime Stitching, and my new favorite: True Up.
I LOVE cakewrecks.blogspot.com !!! It’s crafty…. okay, it’s at least funny!
And bakers are crafters too.
And then Urban Threads, Pink Penguin, and Angry Chicken all three rock my boat for sewing stuff. And Crafster is super handy too.
It’s all about http://www.cutoutandkeep.net for me!
well, ravelry, craftycrafty, craftzine and craftster. but also http://mochimochiland.com/weblog/, http://foldingtrees.com/
Craftster really is The Best, and the first place I always send people who want to get started, but I’ve got a couple of other faves as well.
Most people already know Threadbanger, with their wealth of fun, young, mostly entry-level DIY projects:
http://www.threadbanger.com/
Geek Crafts is just great fun, though less instruction-focused:
http://geekcrafts.com/
And as a garment stitcher, Pattern Review is a very valuable resource with a terrific, active user forums, thousands of reviews and lots of contests:
http://patternreview.com/
of course im a big fan of http://www.twigandthistle.com/blog/ and http://decor8blog.com/
i love http://www.instructables.com/
I really only check crafter, cakewrecks, and urban threads.
while not strictly crafty, trendhunter.com includes a bit of everything
A lot of my favorites are already mentioned by others, here’s a few more I didn’t see in other comments:
http://www.graceviolet.com/
http://blog.maggiemakes.com/
http://threebirdies.blogspot.com/
http://allsorts.typepad.com/allsorts/
Oh what fun!
My favorites are Craftster, Sew Forum, Craft Gossip and Angry Chicken!
I go to craft gossip every day. Not strictly the greatest craft website/blog that I visit daily, but it is one I visit to ease myself into the crafting viewing for the evening.
My favorites are:
http://www.centsationalgirl.com/
http://burlapandblue.blogspot.com/
Thanks!
http://forums.organicgardening.com/eve/forums
Yes, it’s a gardening forum. There’s a craft section for “show and tell”. Gardeners need to do stuff in the winter, you see… once the harvest is canned or dried or frozen. It’s not organized. It’s not tutorial-based. But you will not likely find elsewhere a heated debate on whether to use rinsed oak ashes or Drano when you’re rendering your recently-slaughtered beef fat for soap, or how to shear your llama for the wool you’re going to spin…
And then there’s the gourd jokes. (Musical instrument, or birdhouse? And should that really be hanging at such a suggestive angle?)
http://www.motherearthnews.com/Do-It-Yourself.aspx
Another place I go to for non-stitchy winter creativity.
I love Urband Threads it has been the best find ever and my friends love it too. One of my other favorite sites is http://www.ohfransson.com/oh_fransson/.
I love splitcoaststampers.com and cricut.com as well as Timholtz.com. All are great non-stitchy crafts. I know there’s more, but I can’t think of them right now.
Favorite sites must include Ravelry and the Anticraft, although technically there are stitches involved!! You should definitely court Martha Stewart on her blog, which is quite nice, and http://sabiiwabii.blogspot.com is awesome, too! (must win, must WIN!)
RAVELRY!!!! OMG That site is amazing!
My favorite other hobby/craft is digital scrapbooking. The BEST site for this is http://www.digishoptalk.com/index.php
From there, you can go to litterally 100’s of blogs and stores for supplies. It’s really fun and cool.
Thanks,
Lisa
One of my favorites is Kimono Reincarnate. The lady who runs the site lived for several years in Japan, and she takes sumptuous kimono fabric and remakes it into jewelry. It’s fabulous, and her stories of living in Japan are amazing!
Ravelry rocks!
My favorite is http://modpodgerocks.blogspot.com/, although I always turn to http://craftfail.com/ when I need a laugh or a reality check!
I’m a HUGE Urban Threads fan! What a joy it was to find an embroidery design company that shares my sense of humour!!
