Pin Cushion Arrives


This beautiful pin cushion from Martine from the Netherlands arrived the other day. A beautiful quilted sailboat....so tiny and so perfect. I love it! Martine also sent me a cute card with some fat quarters and two wooden spools. She writes that the fabric is real Dutch and is a replica of the fabrics used for their national costumes. I think I will save it for that special project one day.

Thank you so much Martine.....everything is wonderful.

Pin Cushion Swap




Such a talented lady with so much inspiration. I have been enjoying her blog after I found her a few months ago. She set up a Summer Pin Cushion Swap a few weeks ago and I had to join in on the fun. My pin cushion is finished, along with a needle book that has a small pincushion inside and I filled it with a few extra goodies. It has been shipped to the other side of the world from me......a place that I have always dreamed of going, but probably never will. It is fun to think that although I might never make it there, at least my pin cushion will. My swap partners name is a secret until she receives her package....I just hope she likes it.
Stop by and visit Sandra's blog and see all the wonderful pin cushions that have started to arrive.
