    becomes a pincushion! Mom used to make these for all the kids and their classmates. Mom is gone but with me always. I like this idea so much I had to share!

    Cute idea for it. I used to make them with an open bottom to put over the eggs at Easter. I still have a few and also some my grandmother. I think I'll pull them out this year.
