    The paper spike looks like ones that can be purchased at an office supply store, like Staples or Office Max.

    That is so cute and looks rather easy enough that even I could do it. I might just try it. Thanks for sharing.

    The paper spike that I used was purchased at a newsagent. I did also see them at an office supply store. I am thinking that they would readily available in the US.

    I have to agree that it would also look good using autumn fabric. Then again you could also use spring like fabric and place a butterfly as the top deco.

    Love it. Friend who runs a Kids Club that does quilting uses a empty spool as the base.
