(No, Lettucecraft posting fairy, that is NOT a complete sentence, but it should have been enough for me to respond like that! So I’m typing this extra stuff so I can POST IT.)

That octopus hoop is adorable! I love the expression on his tiny face and the crocheted border that looks like little waves :heart_eyes:

@MightyMitochondria, whoa, whoa, whoa! Your tiny stitched miracles are incredible! The colors, textured stitches, and materials make each piece exactly right.

Cutest mug rug ever, @Moonflame! The stitching is so tint and perfect!

Haha, the crafty octopus is darling, @SonjaBoo! You make such wonderful things, and this little guy is splendid. So fun!

I received an amazing OTT from @BreadMenace! This creation is a mini masterpiece of craftswomanship and art. Behold!


It is an ATC sized Gnome Home! Eeeee! And I’m a lucky one to also receive a LC notecard.

What’s this? The gnome home opens? Look at this accordion fold, people… :star_struck:

Tucked inside each pocket is a sweet gnome ATC. I absolutely love these!

There’s so much depth to each tiny piece of art; paints, ink, stamps, metallic pens…well, I don’t really what went into making this treasure, but it is a joy to own.

Thank you so very much @BreadMenace!! My teensy gnome home and all of its inhabitants are most loved. :heart:

I thought the little house was superb! But, to have all of those little gnomes inside…wow! Each one is a tiny thing! They are so cute…

Oh yay I’m so glad you like it! I really love making those accordion-style ATC holders. This was my first time working from a masterboard to make ATCs, though, and I wasn’t sure how they would turn out. I really liked the process, though, and I’ll definitely be making more!

My swap item from @lifeinpigtails arrived today! I love it!!!


And if the sides and top weren’t already cute enough… I nearly started crying when I saw the back. Not only is it beautiful, it made me homesick for Arizona.

Before I even opened the package, there were a few awesome drawings included on the envelope that made me smile.

April 28 was my birthday, and she included this cute cake for me :smiling_face_with_three_hearts:

Thank you so much, lifeinpigtails! It was a pleasure swapping with you! :heart:

This gallery is filled with so much tiny goodness!

@storerboughtcreation - the tiny stitches on that ornament are very impressive! The design you went with goes really well for the size and shape of the biscornu.
@roler - your sheep filled brooch makes it look like you’ve been doing wool folk art designs for a long time! It’s really well done and has a sweet folksy feel to it.
@marionberries - your projects are the perfect way to use both scraps and the various stitches on a sewing machine, how fun! Those triangle pouches are really neat!
@pottermouth - that hoopla is incredible! I love how detailed and fun it is!
@MightyMitochondria - so many tiny stitches!
My favorite is the oval, I really like the curved stitches!
@SonjaBoo - that crafty octopus is really fun and such a creative idea!
@BreadMenace - the gnome house arc holder is really neat, but for it to be housing all those fun gnome atcs as well!? Very nice!
@lifeinpigtails - that little cube box is really neat and so full of texture! I really like the sky in the Arizona scene!

@lifeinpigtails, Beast Jr just saw the box you made for me, and she keeps saying, “that’s a lot of talent! She’s so talented!” I wanted to share those sweet compliments with you from my 8 year old awesome niece. :heart:

Aww, that’s awesome, thank her! I ALWAYS like to hear what kids have to say… maybe that’s why I’m hoping summer camp won’t get cancelled this year so I can spend some arty time with gobs of them!

The box itself was so full of texture and pretty colors…looks like you got an extra with that wonderful desert scene on back!

Thank you all for your kind comments on my quilt binding. I watched a few YouTubes that helped me a lot! :slight_smile:

You guys would not believe the adorable way @Audiobooklover packaged the amazing AMAZING swap she made for me! Inside the shipping box was a beautiful card, and a perfect, tiny Amazon box:

Kiki was very curious about what could be inside, and even though Blaise was having kind of a bad day, he couldn’t feign indifference.

When they opened the tiny box, they found the best surprise EVER! (Especially on this otherwise gloomy day!) A COMPLETE BOXED SET OF HARRY POTTER BOOKS IN JUST THEIR SIZE!!!

Best Quarantine Day EVER!! :smiley:

Thank you SO MUCH! We’re all over the moon here! :smiley:

PS, the Amazon box is staying as a permanent prop, too! I can’t get over its cuteness!
