Time for a new series y'all!

The Top 5 at Ellison Lane.

It combines my love of lists with a bunch of eye candy coming your way each week.

The Top 5 what you ask? Well just you wait and see.

That's the beauty of this series- there are no rules. The top 5 will cover all sorts of topics, tutorials, inspiration, travel, music, books and beyond. 

Really, nothing is off limits.

Ready to get started? Yeah, let's do this.

2. Oh So Cute Tiny Houses by Kim of Retro Mama



3. Teeny Tiny Hexies by Corey of Little Miss Shabby

Cute, cute pin cushions. Thanks for compiling the list (I'm also a very organized list-maker!). Here is a pin cushion with a brief tutorial I just found yesterday from KelbySews: http://kelbysews.blogspot.com/2013/02/gifts-quilting-and-wowza.html

I do love that cathedral window one, I made one for my mum a couple of Christmases ago and she loves it so much, she won't use it lol
