Still looking for the big ones, but I actually won some at the Spokane County Fair for the first time. I am excited for sure.

Finished my pincushions last night. I did two, not sure if I want to sign up for two though. One has cotton stuffing, yep that stuff they do upholstery with, and one with walnut shells. I have one more set of triangles that I can sew up and make one more for myself if I really get energetic or can put them in the scrap pile and say done with the UFO stuff. Yep, these are from a UFO project started a few years ago. Saw that pattern and cut up but not done. [ATTACH=CONFIG]361975[/ATTACH]

Very Different! Did you come up with the pattern your self?

Lovely icon.

Those pincushions are a Jinny Beyer freebie I got from her newsletter off her site. I like the star look of them. As someone said, they could be anything with eight legs you want. I wonder if you only put five points on it it would look better, but I am not taking apart to find out. They are done and that is final.

Icon17. How about you sending me your basket pincushion, and I'll send you one of mine, and we can forget about the swap - we can be our own swap. I really do like your basket and would love to have it on my sewing table. Gorgeous.
