Autumn Crafts
The cooler summer evenings remind us that fall is just around the corner! I hope you'll join me in North Amherst on October 13th for a Pumpkin Gnome sewing workshop. We'll customize our own Waldorf-inspired miniature dolls for gentle play or tabletop display.
Does your schedule never seem to align with our workshop offerings? Now you can also choose from a variety of pre-recorded workshops to watch at your own pace. Check out the "Workshops" page to register for on-demand workshop and even some accompanying sewing kits!

Felt, Glorious Felt!
Rachel has been busy this summer hand-dyeing yards and yards of gorgeous wool felt. Wee Things' felt is 70% wool and 30% rayon, giving it exceptional durability and color. All of my dyes are natural (no synthetics!), made from materials that I have grown, gathered, or thoughtfully sourced. Browse the beautiful color palettes in my Etsy shop to inspire your next craft project!
New Tutorial
Warming Hands and Hearts
I have really enjoyed the opportunity to sew and needle felt with many of you this winter. This tutorial is for a new project that I am offering as a workshop through our local libraries. It's a wonderful way to use up scraps of upcycled felted sweater material and make a special keepsake. Pop these rice-filled hand warmers in the microwave and tuck them in your pocket!
