    Default Pretty Pin Cushions

    Hello all, I just finished these five "Cathedral Window" pin cushions. The pattern comes from Foot Loose & Fancy Free, and is by Sandra Grace Lister. If interested in the free pattern (PDF download), you can go to www.footloosenfancyfree.com.
    When I saw the pattern (quite some time ago), I knew I wanted to try it. These were NOT EASY!!! I think they must have taken about 3 hours each....well, maybe I exaggerate a little, but they are certainly a lot of fussy work! Even so, I love the results!
    I was sewing buttons on at work yesterday, and a fellow suggested he'd have to get one from me (his girlfriend is a crafter). I didn't make them to sell, and for all the work, not to mention the buttons (up to $2.50/each), I think my price would have to be pretty high.
    Thanks for looking!

    They are works of art, you can be proud of. I can see the work you put into them, and your buttons are all beautiful. Thanks for sharing.

    So very pretty! And if you could enlarge them...wouldn't they make pretty sofa pillows? Thanks for sharing.
