My creative space has been buzzing with activity lately, as I’ve been putting the finish to a lot of projects that had stopped midway for one reason or another. I’ve also found a few minutes here and there to create a couple of small pieces for my daughter’s dollhouse. What you see there is the beginning of a wee cradle blanket for the baby of the house.
The beauty of these projects is that they take so little time, yet they’re so satisfying in their miniature way. (They’re also great for using up scraps.) The topper is how truly happy my girl is about something I’ve made for her.
Isn’t it nice being a Maker of Things?
If you’d like to visit more Thing Makers, head on over to kootoyoo for a plethora of other crafty spaces.
Yes, yes it is lovely to be a maker of things. I’m also a fan of the speedie quick “instant” stuff.

Enjoy your mini creating!
