The EtsyBlogger for the month of May is Sandi from Handmade by Sandi! Sandi makes a variety of lovely items including the following...

Pet Placemat
Valentine Coffee Cozy Pink Felted Bowl
Puppy Paws Earrrings - Fabric Covered Button Earrings Crocheted Hat with Flower
Sandi also makes her lovely crocheted hats for cancer patients as described here:

"In 2006, after starting chemo treatment for breast cancer, I crocheted myself little hats and skull caps to keep my head warm - even in bed!

With the completion of my treatment, and my energy level coming back - I decided to pay it forward, by crocheting hats for other cancer patients. What a wonderful feeling to give back for all the help I received! "

Until tomorrow, May 31st, Sandi is celebrating her birthday this month by having a Birthday Bash in her shop - everything is 50% off! To take advantage of this sale and to see her other beautiful items, check out Handmade by Sandi on Etsy. She also has a second Etsy shop with fabric and supplies called Sandi's Stash.

Enjoy your Sunday!

All very lovely looking gear, especailly the hat, just the best looking hat ever!! Your friend is a clever lady. Spider and Smudge love the pet placemat and tell me they would prefer it to the towels we use at the moment.

Great stuff. I like that pet place mat. Duke would feel like a king eating off of that :) Those puppy paw earrings are adorable too.

Those are super items. But the hat is just wonderful. Wish I had had that during my chemo. It is so hard to find a decent hat when you need it. That is such a great thing to knit hats for other people. That hat sure would make the fact of being bald a whole lot easier. I need to go visit her.
Thanks for showing this.
Have a great Sunday.

That pet mat is very nice. And what a caring person Sandi is to make those hats for others suffering. Hats off (or on) to her.
