It’s officially October, and fall has arrived, bringing falling leaves, cooler temps, and all things pumpkin spice! It’s also the unofficial start to the holiday crafting season!
Whether you’re decorating for Halloween, making Thanksgiving crafts, or looking for Christmas crafts to get started, we’re all looking for fun ideas to make the seasons shine.
If you live in the U.S., then it's likely that the change in weather means that you’ve got children spending more time inside.
These kid-friendly AccuQuilt crafts are great for little hands because they use the GO! Fabric Cutter and dies.
The GO! system is the perfect crafting companion for kids because it’s not only safe, but it's easy to use and gives them perfectly cut pieces every time.
Plus, it's super fun!
So, let's take a look at some crafts for your kids (or grandkids) to do at home.
Kid-friendly Projects your Friends Would Recommend
GO! Fun With Felt
Keep little ones busy with this fun project using felt shapes and flannel fabric, with a minimal amount of sewing. Use any dies you have handy to cut out shapes for some creative fun.
Felt cuts like a breeze with GO! dies and little ones will love building designs from geometric and applique shapes.
The GO! Fun With Felt project was made by AccuQuilt GO! Getter Katy Sweigart of KatyQuilts. Check out the blog post she made about this project posted in early October.

GO! Fall Felt Trees

It’s a fun way to get them involved with decorating for the season and setting the perfect Thanksgiving table, but be prepared to make several – they’re too fun to stop at one or two!
