    Introducing to you all Icy! She will be leaving my home next week for a new home that is west of me.

    This was my first pincushion and very easy. Filled with polly-fill as that is all I had at home.

    I thought these were filled with heavy filling to weigh it down. Then it was used as a pattern weight... I read that somewhere. I guess it could be used for a pin cushion or whatever you want.I've got some pin dot black fabric,think I'll try that for mine.I'm gonna stuff the top with polyfill to use as pincushion and add a little bag of emery in the bottom so it will sit well and I can sharpen my pins and needles with the bottom.(poor little henny)Mary
    Mary, the way these are made they sit up just fine. I don't think you will have to add anything to make it sit up. Try one 1st then decide for the next one. I don't have any problems w/mine standing up.

    Thank you Heather!

    So far we have been very, very lucky! Unfortunately some of our neighbors, friends and family can't say the same. I've never seen so much rain in one summer. Thank you for your warm wishes.
