Well I can't think of a theme for August.

I have my feb. done, working on march (don't forget mardi gras), easter, mom's day, summer flowers ect.
oh that list is endless and we have endless talent here on this board. I think there's more talent here than any place in the world.
I want to make a big shout out to Pam in WA...ReeskyLR for the great pincushion/sewing tote/needlecase and all the goodies that came with it. she even sent me a WOODEN SPOOL. I love wooden spools. bought a canning jar to put them in. and the buttons needles and thread and all the special goodies she packed for me. great swap partner.
Also to JuneBillie, we did a side swap, got a nice pincushion in blues and whites with snowflakes and a needlecase to match, with pins and needles. today was a great mail day for me. sorry, I can't take a photo. but, I love seeing what everyone else got.have a wonderful sunny day today, everyone. keep up the creative work!

Lynnie! I saw you could not post pics, so I took them before I sent. I'm glad you liked it, I was a bit worried, because I'm not sure it was something to display. :)

Pincushion
 

I got this pincushion today from Rose Bagwell. It is very nice, very big and will hold a lot of pins. I also got a pattern to make more of them. Thanks Rose

Oh wow those are beautiful pincushions, and needle cases. reeskylr I haven't seen one like that, and it is like a little sewing bag all in one. Great idea! nhnative that is such a beautiful pincushion. I like them big too, and yes it will hold lots of pins.

Here is a pic of the pincushion and little needle cases I sent lynnie as a side swap since she can't post a pic.
