Pincushion time!


I've had a busy week.... with a wool project!  Chookyblue visited a little while ago and brought me a gorgeous kit designed by Anni Downs .... 

... first requiring a bit of applique.....


.. then some little legs....


... which needed stuffing....


... finally there was a mini porker in the house....


.... the pattern says this..... hmmmm.... Anni clearly doesn't know me! haha...


... and just to get a better idea of the scale of this little pin pig...




Thanks Chooky - I love him to bits and he was such fun to make... even if I wasn't that quick!

... not sure I can stab any pins into him.... could you????

Righto, Gotta Go... for some reason I have a craving for a good piece of bacon....
