OMG 140,000 a year making these, I'm definitely doing something wrong.

What is the one gadget that you can't live without?

My computer and my iphone!

I found this in Intres Etsy store. I love it and just wanted to share it with you. This would make a great gift idea, definitely unique.

For a jolly little elf named Jenny!

These are so cute, I just couldn't resist making one. The first one I made was not so great, a trial run I guess you would call it. I made this one with some red glittery felt I found at Joannes and some white embroidery floss. I spied my aqua and red buttons and immediately thought of Jenny B. Harris @ Allsorts. After all, that's where I found this adorable pattern in the first place. Who better to dedicate it to but her? I adore her blog, the bright color pallet and her adorable illustrations just pull you in. I've included a link to her blog, just in case you've never been there and you would like to find her pattern. Well, I'm off to work on more of these just to see what I can come up with. I'm thinking maybe some machine embroidered clogs that say '09, then I would have an excuse to make a new one every year. Cheers to you Jenny! Thanks for the pattern.
