Also, I think there is a hostess lined up to carry the torch. We are just waiting for PatriceJ to give her blessings, and as soon as we hear, I will let you know. Other than that, no more hints;I love surrpises, don't you?

I'm so glad that there might be a new hostess. I wanted to do it but I'm too computer illiterate. You did a great job on the few swaps I've been in. Thank you Pat

does anyone have a source for them?????

Now that pincushion. that is so cute. I spend hours searching for new designs and
never saw that one. it's to darn cute. Hopefully you get me in the swap and I get you.
can't wait to see who I get, and all the new pc.

I got these years ago and I think I got them online at Fire Mountain Gems. I just went on their website and they have all sizes. The 6" with head was $5.49/10 and the 8" with a head was $6.09/10. I got some 5" ones at JoAnn's for $1.99/3 and I got the same thing at Pat Catan's for $1.19/3. I don't like ordering online because I'm cheap and I don't want to pay for shipping but I'll spend $11/yd on fabric.

I like to see what i'm getting before hand. I know it's impossible, but I want to know it's a good quality. that the pins won't bend when you put them in a pin cushion. the crystal tops I got yesterday was not glass crystal, it's plastic. i'll see how it works out. I've been using the pearl tops with success.
