Moon Phase Choker
I've been so inspired by all of the moon phase home decor and jewelry that I've noticed lately on Instagram! I decided to put my jewelry making skills to the test and create my own crochet accessory. I used embroidery thread to make very tiny moons. I think this could make a cool bunting with …
Dogwood Flowers

You can get the printable version of the pattern HERE. Here are my first prototypes: If you'd like these patterns feel free to …
Tiny Peony
Some of my fondest Spring time memories involve peonies. My great grandmother had a large peony bush. She would take toothpicks and carefully poke them through the flowers to create 'arms and legs'. With some imagination, a peony becomes a dancer twirling in a flowing dress or a queen wearing a ruffled bustle. These peonies …

I created these llama bobbins to organize and display my favorite yarns and threads! There are two files. One has …
