2021 turned out to be a pretty good year for me in my studio. I continue to sell mostly online (through my Etsy<\/a> shop and direct messaging on Instagram<\/a> and Facebook<\/a>) but doing 2 in-person shows was inspiring. Here is my yearly review. I made 24 tiny world pincushions. And thank you to the friends who gave me some beautiful cups this year!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
