Embroidery Kits & Fun

 I have tried so many crafts over the years and now I am adding embroidery to my resume. Have you tried it before? Last year, I watched so many virtual craft classes and was inspired with all sorts of crafts. One of the classes I took was cross stitch with the Stitch People. I loved watching the instructor create her design with such joy. I wanted to try an easier beginning version so I ran across embroidery stitching on Amazon. They had lots of low cost starter kits. I bought one and was surprised how relaxing it was once I got the hang of it.

Here is the link to my first kit. 3 Pack Embroidery Kit

I love these kits because it includes everything you need and detailed instructions. Plus, I love that the design was lightly printed on the canvas so you didn't have to figure out where to put the stitches. 





Didn't I do a fantastic job? LOL! These were so fun to create and a stress reliever, too. Whoever thinks hand crafts don't improve your well being needs to try embroidery. Also, here is a resource list of other fiber arts here at Inspired Me 411. Link Here

This Amazon kit is a newer one I started not long ago. I love the blue one. The color is so pretty! I just work on it here and there.


These kits would be fun to share with friends and have a embroidery party! Hope you give it a try!

V.P. Kamala Harris & Crocheting

  " The new vice president is a crocheter." I was so happily surprised to discover this article in the Washington Post about U.S. Vice President Kamala Harris' craft skills. The title of this story is called, "Vice President Harris is Making Her Mark on the Washington-Area Crochet Scene" by Jura Koncius. Article Link HERE I enjoyed reading this article and seeing the craft community get some well deserved national attention. Take a look at this story and see what you think. If you need some knitting or crochet resources, check our my "Fiber Arts" page here on Inspired Me 411. HERE     Crafts have been a relaxing activity for me and I hope the Vice President inspires others to give this craft a try. Be inspired!

First YouTube Anniversary

While the pandemic was devastating there were some good moments that happened in 2020. For years, I had dreamed of creating YouTube crafting tutorials and last year in the mist of the stressful times, I got started. My channel is called K. Simone Designs and I would love for you to visit and subscribe if you haven't. Join the inspiration party!  June of 2020, I posted my first tutorial called, "Mini Album Card." Did you see it? I was so excited to share my favorite mini album card with the world. I had been making them for years and this video got a great reception. Video Link HERE Since then, I have continued to learn and grow in my videos. I am so proud of my progress and determination to stick with it in spite of the highs and lows. I hope you all have enjoyed the variety of content I have produced. My goal was to inspire you and based on the comments, I think I met that objective. Yay! :) Let's look at some of my YouTube stats as of today. Subscribers: 217 Paper
