    Oh my goodness, that is the most amazing pin cushion I have ever laid my eyes upon! Since you told us the pattern I shall assume you made it. It's just beautiful!

    Elizabeth,
    Thank you for the compliment. Yes, I made it this year. It is 14" tall. It is made from a combination of hand dyed wool & cotton fabrics, then embellished with my favorite beads. It was so fun to make.

    Here is a link to some interesting little pin cushions. I have never seen any quite like these.

    I had a favorite and lost it when my computer crashed. I am still searching and hope to run across it soon. It is a large, pumpkin colored pincushion. I will send it when I find it.
