The Crafty Rancher

Free Unique Patterns and Crafts

Welcome to my craft blog! Since childhood, my mother instilled in me a love for crafts and sewing. Through the years I have broadened my interests to everything from sewing to leather working and para-cord braiding. It is my goal to develop a blog which will contain the many craft ideas my mom taught me, as well as the new ones I have developed. All of the ideas and patterns are free for your enjoyment. I hope they create as many fond memories for you as they have for me!
