And just because I could, I also made some tiny stars (below).Īlso just back in stock: large long stitch sketchbooks for mixed media. The regular sized version of this star is available in my shop. While on a roll, I also made some really big stars for a local holiday market. See how nice they look in their vellum paper packages! They also happen to fit into any envelope, so why not surprise a faraway friend with a special holiday treat! For some reason I'm partial to the ones with page numbers.
