Completed project: Spring flowers stitch markers
I’m immensely proud of how cute these stitch markers are! The pastel colors and the dainty little flowers make them feel so spring-timey. They have sterling silver findings and fit needles up to size US 10.5.

Completed project: Citrus stitch markers
Here’s my latest set of stitch markers. The colors remind me of citrus trees, my all-time favorite being the meyer lemon tree. I’m insanely jealous of people who live in a climate where they can grow citrus trees outside, or who have enough of a green thumb to keep them alive indoors. I, unfortunately, can do neither.
In the background is a raglan sweater I started a year or so ago and never got very far on. The yarn is Knitpicks Vacation, which is a little awkward to work with because of its thick-and-thin texture. I’m going to buckle down and complete it this year, hopefully in time to wear this fall.

Completed project: Turquoise stitch markers
I just finished a set of turquoise stitch markers. There are 4 closed-ring stitch markers and 2 locking stitch markers, great for knitting socks and lace!

Completed project: stitch markers
There are 6 stitch markers in all, 4 closed and 2 that are “locking.” They’re made from turquoise beads and sterling silver findings. I love them! They’re going, along with the yarn, to a friend for her birthday.

Completed projects: purse, notecards, stitch markers and etsy store!
I’ve been meaning to do this all summer and I only just now got around to it. I made a purse using the pattern from tiny happy and it turned out really well. I used corduroy and a cotton print fabric. I ironed fleece interfacing to the cotton print to help the bag keep its shape.
I also printed out a bunch of wallet-size photographs I’ve taken on vacation and pasted them onto notecards. This Buddha one is my favorite. 
I also finished one set of stitch markers, with more to come soon. I love the triangle beads!

Completed project: wire-wrapped vase
I strung a few beads on some craft wire and wrapped the wire around this cheap Ikea vase. I think it looks a lot better, the shape looks less akward now. The flowers are from my garden.

Completed project: stitch markers
I made some stitch markers that fit knitting needles up to size 13. These will come in handy for the socks I’m knitting!
