All of these pin cushions are so pretty. I am having to wait to see if I can join or not. Have had a lot going on.

Mariposa 08-17-2012 06:24 AM

JuneBillie- perhaps sewing up a pretty pin cushion could be a bit of a stress reliever for you-? Hope you join us! :)

CajunBear 08-17-2012 06:56 AM

Okay lynnie have to explain what a rolly needle holder is...have a photo?
Hugs,
Cajun

lynnie 08-17-2012 08:25 AM

I can't post a pic. I make a strip of patchwork 6 x 12
Make to yo yos attach to the ends to form a tube
sew on a ribbon to tie it closed.make a small pincushion toput on the inside
Of one of the end yo yos.
Theyusually hold my little sissors, needles, and2-3 spools of thread.
and a werthers or two

QuilterMomma 08-18-2012 06:51 PM

Well I gave the pincushions I made away today at my class. I now have to make a couple more. Will get them done when I set up my embroidery machine again.

mary quilting 08-19-2012 12:03 PM

my son is 22 and his buddy saw my pin cushions and wanted one so I had to give him one

lauriejo 08-19-2012 04:57 PM

Oh I love pincushions! I will have to get to work and make a couple more so I can join in this swap.

Mariposa 08-19-2012 05:12 PM

Pin cushions can be habit-forming, can't they-? :)

Im not from across the pond, but I dont think that is unreasonable to ask at all! I think it would be good going both ways for the shipper, if they used someting besides the filberfill for filling.
Just my thought :)

The fabric is from Fabric Hideaway Designed by Becky and Me for Print Concepts Inc.

Hope this helps, I've had this for years. It was sent in to me for my Birthday from a group I was involved in.

Hugs,
Betty
