Pictured above is a tiny little bag I made recently using a pattern called Dot’s Little Ditty Bag. I liked how it turned out, though it is really small! So, I’m now making one similar to it but bigger. I’ll keep you posted on how that turns out. As you can see, I’m not the only busy crafter on the web. Check out this week’s craft bloggers’ links.

Welcome to the Crafty Princess Diaries, my weblog and site where I get to blab about my passion for crafts, primarily jewelry making, and my crafting career. My name is Tammy Powley, and I decided to call my blog the Crafty Princess Diaries because of this very dorky picture I have of myself and because my husband often refers to me as “the princess and the pea,” which is just another way to say that I tend to be particular sometimes. Along with this weblog, I have a number of jewelry making books published.
