I created this supertiny felted pin cushion for my friend Marianne, who met me at PIQF again this year.
She knitted THE most adorable booties on earth for our new baby...picture coming soon...and was a complete sweetheart about walking around the show at the snail's pace that characterizes somebody traveling with an infant.
I'm a felting addict now...I'm going to have to make more of these tiny pin cushions.
In the spirit of making my house a complete messy wreck, I spread out the blocks for my sister's baby's quilt again, and am feverishly working on them whenever both boys fall asleep at the same time. That isn't often, but I am making progress here and there. It makes me happy to do anything creative lately.
So is everybody out there as addicted to Etsy as I am? Who are your favorite sellers? Please do share them with me! Here are a few of mine:
Sonatine: Japanese 'cute' fabric
Chocolate Swirl: Mostly Japanese craft books, but other goodies too.
Matatabi: Cute fabrics as well, Love this apple one.
Pippijoe: Adorable fabrics, I have not ordered from here yet, but would love to.

God I LOVE etsy. I bought one of my housemates a hand-made bangle bracelet that was wrapped in pages from Pride and Prejudice (her favorite book).
Best. Gift. Ever.
