Friday’s Making DayIt’s my Making Day today. Will probably still be working on my very intricate paper cutout, but may also be tempted to use a recently-purchased thingy to cover buttons with my fabric scraps – it’s totally addictive. Happy weekend, everyone.

Jesse’s broochesHave you seen the lovely ceramic brooches Jesse’s been making and selling in her shop?
