Quilt Earrings!

I have been playing around with polymer clay recently. A while back, while I was cutting fabric scraps for a scrap quilt, I needed to take a fabric break. That's when it hit me: quilt earrings! I could still maintain the quilt motif while using a different medium!

I love the way these guys turned out! They are small and the stitching details make the "quilt" pop!

I love the way these turned out! It took some serious concentration and steady handwork. They are cute! Some I attached to stud posts and others clip on earrings.

The dime conveys the size.

Some are clip-on earrings.

Some have posts.

I listed a variety of them in my mom's Etsy shop. I will list the clip-on earrings later. These are too cute! I can special order colors and blocks. I can also do bulk orders. Check out the earrings at Cumberland Quilting Co.'s Etsy shop!

Creative Roads are Rarely Straight

So in my last post, I had been crocheting squares of scrap yarn with the intention of making an afghan. While working on the squares yesterday, I decided to make them into a bag.

I don't really know why, because I was excited about the idea of a scrappy afghan. The little knotted yarns just asked to be made into a tote. You can find the tote on my Etsy shop:




I love the way this came together. It is not too big and is perfect for summer.
