balmain art + craft show 2011

there's nothing quite like the annual balmain art + craft show to nudge me into pretty little pin-making mode. this time of year has become a messy craft-couch season where i work my way through a backlog of dvds, stitch pins, and ignore the fact that my floorboards haven't seen the light of day in weeks. sheets of felt fan out over the floor like colourful carpet tiles, and i surround myself with hundreds of buttons, a tangle of threads, cardboard cut-outs and rogue needles (ouch).
note for next year: invest in a pin cushion.
