Cake pin cushion
 

This is a picture of a cake pin cushion I made for my big sis rosemary. some may know her as ladybug1938 on the board here. Her birthday was in april. Also I'm posting a picture of the storm last week coming in. I know Lynnie and a few others love pictures like me,so these are for you.....enjoy.

Laurie, is everything ok?

Wow, Mary, that cake pincushion is beautiful!

Amazing cake pincushion. looks good enough to eat!!!
Also, nice picture of the land. did you have a lot of damage from the storms?
Nice seeing green grass.
I still need to make my second pincushion. gotta get in the mood to sew again.
It's a bit sunny here today about 64.
I still have my sea legs and it's driving me crazy

Sorry I've been out of touch, life just got crazy. I have still not heard from stitchnstuff as far as what she wants to swap. I don't want to hold off any longer so I am going to go with what I have now.

Thanks ladies. It was a challenge but fun. I put a few beaded pins in it.Kinda looked like birthday candles. I didn't get a picture with them in it. Lynnie didn't get to much damage.lost a few roof shingles and lots of garbage from around others came this way. lots of high winds and tornados around us. We were lucky. I think the way the land lays (not flat) Most of the storms fury seems to split to the north and south a little and goes around my town. The grass is getting greener and thicker as the days go by. The cattle are on just grass now,no hay.

Mary that cake pin cushion is gorgeous. My grass has been mowed twice now. I love spring and summer.

Yay!! I got my wonderful name to make a pincushion for. I am so excited now to choose the right things. I hope she will like it.

Mary I had to go back and take another look at that beautiful pincushion. It is just so pretty. It's very elegant.:thumbup:

Thank you Lauriejo for all your hard work. You sure do a great job for all of us.:)

I got my name.Thank you Laurie!
