Had to get me some, when I saw Kelli's. I have been meaning to make a pincushion for ages, but hadn't gotten around to it. Can you believe I didn't even own ONE?? So I bought two- one for me, and one for a friend. They were made by Amy, using a stencil of freezer paper, at During Quiet Time on Etsy. She has a great blog as well!How am I ever going to stick a pin in this? It's too cute! Maybe I will just name her and she can be my sewing partner. We can have long chats and laugh together, and if she insults my wonky sewing lines.... well, I will stab her with a pin. Meh ha haaaaaaa (evil laugh)!!
I also asked Amy to also make me a mini-quilt, to hang on my wall in my craft room, based on another adorable pincushion she blogged here. Just gave her a color palate preference of red and aqua, and a go! In a flash, she had it done- take a look:
Isn't it great? It will be wonderful inspiration as I work away in my craft room. All the steps of quilting listed, and a sampling of different quilt squares along the left. So cute. Can't wait for it to arrive! It was also made with a freezer paper stencil for the words. Now Amy has me stimulated...bought my own freezer paper at the grocery store this week, we'll see what comes of it, eh?In other news, I got a lovely email from Healther and Megan at Quilt Story asking to feature my Twin Quilts today....gave me the warm fuzzies! Thanks for the quilt love, everyone :-) I have another one to show you next week, in some sweet Nicey Jane!
