cats in pants and other lovely things made by customers

You get at least 2 levels of awesomeness from this post: links to makers I think you’ll love (click the images to find the maker) and ideas for little gifts. I love seeing what you make from my patterns, your details and your stories, I love that these things are in the world, cats in pants, woebegone pines, enchanted mushrooms etc…

The mischievous fellows above are made from the mr. socks pattern and free little pants pattern.

The trees are made from the woebegone pines pattern. I love whole the table!

And I love that they are very often gifts. Handmade gifts that surprise and delight. The songbird pattern is breaking records in that department. Also – FYI – I am a big fan of cottage industry and selling things you make from my patterns is not only OK but encouraged. If you do sell stuff I so appreciate if you let people know where you got the pattern.

  2. I just shared the tiny doll pattern with the needlework club at our local high school. (How cool is it that there is such a club?). I can’t wait to see what they create and I’ll be sure to share.

    You work is always a delight. I think you should write a book about Miss Thistle and her friends.

  7. How wonderful to see my circle of little dolls on your blog post. This circle has since increased significantly! I have been really enjoying making them, and your blog and wonderful patterns are a great source of inspiration. Thank you.
