Needle cases just about done!! Came out a lot bigger than I think maybe it should be, but is a great size to keep your hand work supplies in in your purse...Never have seen an actual needle case before..Tomorrow the pincushions finished...already cut out

Today is the memorial service for mom, it is going to be a rough
day for sure, but we are going to (try) focus on the good things
in her life and (try) not to mourn as much on our losing her.

A couple memories and thoughts I have are from when I was a
little girl (about age 6 or so) is my grandfather on dads side use
to LOVE my moms fried chicken. So to help comfort my dad in
loss of mom I told him to just keep in mind she is probably up
in heaven cooking fried chicken for grandpa as he scolds her for
not wearing shoes.

Have a good day everyone if anyone is interested I am including
a link to the online obituary for my mom, but PLEASE don't feel
obligated to click on the link. Just a forewarning though that my
mom's wishes were to be cremated so the website link is to the
place who is handling everything.

Lonnie is so fast! I received my pincushions and some adorable goodies to go with it. Oh thank you girl. And, back is doing good. Actually off all meds except one.

I'm so glad you liked it. tried to keep in your colors, I love that small scissor for snipping threads and the tweezer for pulling said threads.

Jaba made me this awesome pincushion. I love it! It's like Christmas when I get a package in the mail. She made me a matching needlecase too. Thank you so much Jaba! She asked me to post pics since she is still on vacation (lucky :)). If you can't see from the picture - the PC is a box with the cushion on the lid. I opened it for the picture to show it off.

nice idea, the box pincushion, and cute matching needle case too!

Old_Rosebud so glad you like it, I had fun making it for you. Thought the box idea might be handy to keep scissors and thread in for a little storage, seems I always have the "stuff "on the end table by my chair. Thanks for posting pic of it for me

Jaba, what a cool idea for the 'box' pin cushion. Sure nice that there are so many talented folks here.
