Inch worm pincushion


There is just not that much cute st. patricks day stuff out there so I had to make mine own. I have a st. patricks day swap coming up so I made one of my inch worm pincushions with a bunch of shamrocks and yellow flowers. I added some beads to the center of the yellow flowers and the center of the shamrocks.

"Teapot" tea bag holder


Teapot tea bag pouch. I saw a teapot needle book and it gave me the idea to make a holder for tea bags. That way you will always have your favorite tea flavor with you.

Handmade postcards







Here are two of my handmade postcards for a up coming swap on swap-bot.com.
The first postcard swap theme is purple, I found this great picture of a very large dog with with a purple boa.... way to funny. And the second postcard theme is just handmade, I had some tissue with dragonflies on it and wrote a little poem to put on it.









I see a dragonfly way up high, bright with the morning sky. Flying high in my mind's eye. The sound of a gentle breeze, with rustling in through the trees. What a sight to see.

Crochet Hook Roll



I have a profile suprise swap coming up on swap-bot.com and the gal really likes all things Irish and wanted a crochet hook roll. I found the perfect fabric just for her "Kiss Me I'm Irish" The hook roll is about 8" x 9" with 6 pockets for crochet hooks and the little flap keeps the needles from falling out when rolled up.
