Today was awesome! Found the cutest fabric, at Hobby Lobby . . . then came home to find A PACKAGE IN MY MAILBOX!!! It turned out to be the cutest chicken pincushion, ever. . . complete with FEATHERS!!! Not only was there a pincushion in that package . . . but also a beautiful thread catcher, a cool two-sided pen (pen/highlighter), and some recipe and craft cards, along with a postcard and sweet, little note! THANK YOU, Mary / Havplenty!!! I love it all!!!!!! :-D

Is it my imagination . . . or does anyone else notice the similarity between my beautiful new chicken pincushion and my little doggie (avatar)?

Wow! All of the above pin cushions are so pretty, cool, cute, and will certainly be enjoyed. I am getting pretty excited too, and can't wait to check my mail tomorrow. This has been such a fun swap.

neesie thanks for posting because i forgot to take a pic of this pincushion. it's an original as i created it from a picture and i like to keep pics of the pc's i create.


as for similarities, the coloring and the red. now all you need to do is tie white feathers onto your dog and i think you'll have a perfect match.

Yeah, I'm sure we can all imagine what would happen to the feathers!

I'm still anxiously waiting for my second one to arrive. I love my first one, though. I'm working on getting pictures onto the computer. Lately my computer hasn't accepted the pictures from my camera SD card. I'm hoping you'll see them eventually. MargieLou
