Crafting Sunshine

 As these grey winter days drag on and I find myself missing all things spring,
I'm realizing that some days you just have to make your own sunshine.
This little craft came together for just that reason.
I've had this line of fabric for a bit now,
Marmalade by Moda.
The cheeriness of it can brighten any day!

During the boys quiet time I stitched up this little vintage inspired needle book.
My mom had talked about them a few years back 
so I thought a little surprise care package was in order. 
It came together so quickly I was able to pop it in the mail that same day!
Oh how I love a happy, sunny craft like this.



I didn't follow a pattern, 
just kept piecing the top together 
till I had a long rectangle that could be folded in half to make a book.
 The end result is about a 4inch square needle book. 
Cute and tiny!
I will be making more for sure, should a tutorial be in order?
