Jaba,
So glad you like it. I had planned another idea, but just couldn't seem to get started. One day I walked into our WalMart fabric department and saw the blackberry fabric and then the basket weave fabric and ideas started swirling through my head and I knew I had the perfect fabric for my April Swap. When I found the pincushion pattern, I knew I was on the right track. Then it was back to WalMart to find the right ribbon for the needle case. Then it was why not use the ribbon on the pincushion so it can be worn around the neck. I am soooooo happy you like it. I use those little cases for my bobbins -- I have one for each machine. This swap was so much fun for me, now to make one of those pin cushions for myself.
