My thumbtacks in Country Living

This is pretty exciting. When I first heard about it I wasn't going to believe it until I saw it. And then today I saw it!

The May issue of Country Living magazine features my little gingham button thumbtacks in a spread about all things gingham and adorable. Mine are the blue and purple ones.




I have plenty of these little guys in stock and can make more (or make them into refrigerator magnets).


The story behind the fabric is that it was used to make a baby blanket years ago. My mom gave me all the leftover scraps, and this is what I did with them. I always thought they were cute, so it's nice to know someone else does, too.
