Karen, very cute pin cush. and needlecase. Purple is my favorite color also. I have been really surprised at all the different p.c. and n.b.'s. there has hardly been any doubles. And when there has the different fabrics makes it look different. Today was a pretty day here. mostly sunny not to windy and almost 70*. Tomorrow is suppose to be low 70's and sunny. Perfect weather to me. I love these warm spring days.
