Well, Aulë did teach some of the Noldor his arts as well. And as it is said in The Lord of the Rings, there was a friendship going on between the Elves of Eregion and the Mines of Moria before Sauron came along with his army to get Celebrimbor.

This friendship was formed on the basis of something Aulë gave both Races: the love of making things with your own hands.

And Dwarves could be jealous of the Elves since the Elves seem to get more of the other Valar's affections, and they mostly have only Mahtan to look up to. Also, the Dwarves don't like the Sea, and there must be a reason for this as well. Perhaps they were just never meant to cross the Sea, or it could have something to do the Ulmo.
