Scratch and Stitch is a place to get creative inspiration. If you’re a maker like me, you’re in the right place.
Hi, my name is Cathi, thanks for stopping by! The compilation of my handmade projects on Scratch and Stitch began in 2011 when my husband came up with the clever name for my blog. I have a passion for getting creative with my hands in the kitchen, in the garden, in my craft room, and behind a sewing machine. Inspiration for my projects comes from other creative people, nature, the changing of seasons, and music. Although I love collecting and trying new recipes, I sometimes come up with my own twist of simple and healthy ingredients and share it here. Oh and I love Halloween!
I’m a huge fan of electronic music and my husband and I go out dancing often. He and I are full-time creatives working from our home. We live in a cul-du-sac in the suburbs of Minneapolis in a home filled with plants and a yard covered in gardens. We have a fourteen year old kitten and a Goldendoodle named Disco. In 2017 our family became three with the addition of our son.
Here you will find tutorials for my handmade projects, jewelry, and recipes as well as projects made by other creatives like me. Follow along and get inspired to make something you love!
