Saturday Sampler: Pet Snowflake Edition

 

I've been digging through my Christmas finishing stash and decided I needed a little friend to sit on my craft table while I work, so I made a pet snowflake. No special purchases or instructions; I just used whatever I had on hand. He turned out pretty cute!




I also made a few more needle minders and maids-of-all-work. Info and links about how I make these and what the maids are for in this post.




I've also been playing with beads and trying my hand at making some new baubles for my stitching projects. More on that soon.


And I'm redoing my shelf-top stitching display to celebrate our 250th birthday! And have plans for a special decoration for our front door.

Busy, busy, busy!

    I love the idea of your pet snowflake - how adorable! The needleminders and baubles are brilliant - there are so many possibilities with those. The picture with the little jars in your bead box just made my organizing-minded personality completely happy. I can't wait to see your 250th birthday display. That is a milestone that is really something to be celebrated!
