    I'm really into making pincushion's lately.. what can you do with more then one? I don't know I just love them! I'm looking for a turtle I saw last night, I didn't ask for the name of the designer so I'm in search ...

    It isn't flat it has a nice kind of rounded back.. the pattern has such a cute head and legs.. Looking Looking Looking ...

    I made this two pincushions last month ~

    I too love the pincushions and the patterns, crissie. I think I have one for a turtle. Let me look.... It is kind of an old one, so it might not be the one you are looking for.

    Yes!! I found it. It is in the book, "Making Fabulous Pincushions", by Jo Packman, by Sterling Publishing Co. ISBN 0-8069-0994-3

    Oh I changed my post crissy to tell you the book I got it from. Maybe the library has it near you???? I use the library a lot for resources.

    Those are adorable pincushions! My Mom has a little brown mouse! He is adorable! I love the pear and the apple! I haven't made a pincushion before. But now I just might try! :D :D
