Welcome!
I’ve just been doing some embroidery. Come on in!
My name is Jenn and I am the creator of Jenn Maruska Design. I’m an artist and seamstress and I make cute and useful items for your workspace and home. About 10 years ago I made my first simple needlebook out of woolfelt. I’ve since modified the design and incorporated my own unique, hand embroidery as decoration. And I now use luxurious high-quality wools for the covers. My needlebooks, pincushions and taskets are well made and meant to last for years to come. I’m inspired by natural colors and Japanese design.
My needlebooks are perfect for anyone who quilts, beads, embroiders or sews.
You can use a tasket to hold your small supplies and tools.
I hand embroidered a spool of thread as decoration for this crafty pincushion.

Don’t forget about the door prize!
Leave me a comment to be entered into a drawing to win the pincushion below.
The winner will be announced here on Wednesday, Nov 5th.
Thank you so much for attending this Virtual Etsy Home Show!
I’d like to invite you to the next stop on your tour:

Your needlework is perfection! I, too, embroider, it’s so relaxing to paint with needle and thread. Your lovely pincushion would be a welcome addition to my little embroidery corner
