I have enjoyed Thimble Arts and Crafts blog's mosaics of her favorite flickr images and the best web tutorials for quite some time, and I've been trying my hand at making the mosaics of my etsy favorites by hand. It's a time-consuming process and doesn't always turn out as nice as I would hope. But the wonderful Jenny Harris at allsorts just posted her own beautiful mosaic, and she created it with Mosaic Maker by Big Huge Labs. Thanks, Jenny, for all you do! Jenny also posted a tutorial for a scotty softie that got me all fired up about crafting again. She's also pledged "A Post a Day in May," so be sure to check out her site.
