Crazy Pincushion SewABit Sew and Tell.....

G'day to you
The crazy pincushions are still travelling.... some are now coming to the end of their itinerary and will soon be on their way home

here are some I have spotted
and I'm sure you'll agree

THEY ARE LOOKING FANTASTIC

I love seeing each part put on by a different person and how they are growing so beautifully

This is Val's ........... and it is on it's way to Sandi now ....


Laura's base has left Roslyn's and is GOING HOME.....


Melody's base has been with Laura



and Sue's base has been visiting Marina.........


Previous posts about these and other pincushions can be seen HERE

Here is one that I have made up for a gift....
the top is about 8" diameter.....


and I added an edge around so it is a nice fat pincushion


lots of bugs, and flowers, and thingies to look at....


this was such a fun project and Hubz did have to be stern with me about actually posting it to the person I made it for!!

    I love all the different themes on the pin cushions and the way you added the border really is a nice way to finish it.
