Those big strawberries, and radishes are so cute. All of these pin cushions are so neat.

Ladies I seen the cutest (at least in my opinion) needle cases yesterday
now I just need to find the tutorial again so I can try to make them too.

I will post the link once I find it again.

Sure do miss not joining y'all this month.

Tracey I HOPE you are feeling better, SUMMER illnesses are the worst to
get rid of in my book, haven't had many in my life, but enough to know
that I would rather be beaten with a whip (almost) than suffer through
a summer time cold/flu illness.

Get better soon to anyone else who is under the weather, hurting, or
just plain feels "out of sorts".

Ok I FINALLY found the website to where I saw the needle case.

Of course me being ME I am not going to follow the tutorial to
the letter. Instead of using plastic canvas and their way to make
the "end" circles I am going to use template plastic and yo-yos
(go figure right?). Lets not forget that I will make mine larger just
because LOL.

Hope you enjoy this Needle Case tutorial

Louise, that's the one I make too. but I make my round ends about 2 1/2" and cut my long pc, 6 x 12"
they are addictive to make. I've made over 40 fr them have fun!!!! they are gret

Sent my pincushion today. Should arrive on Monday!

can't wait to see pictures. I love this swap, so fun
when is next months sign up, I don't want to miss it

I remember you making these sewing kits lynnie. They were so pretty!

red, did you get one???

needle cases need felt, which of course now find out I don't have. Will get them finished tomorrow and send the DD out Monday to get all in the mail. Lynnie, love the sewing kit. I am going to try to make one for my Secret Santa, I have been collecting items for that already, and make an extra for each swap I do to add to the package. By the time it gets to mailing time, I may need 2 boxes!! Now I have to focus on finishing a quilt someone's grandmother started that it driving me crazy trying to complete a quilt where each block measures differently! I have so many others I want to start, but am telling myself I have to finish that one first (or I will push it off forever!) I stalled for the past 3 days crocheting minion hats for the daughters. Now to focus and get that done!

Pat...I did not have any felt when I made the needle case for my last swap so I just used Warm & Natural. I think it worked just fine. Just a hint in case you need something quickly. Of course, you may not have any W&N sitting around either.
