Pincushion perfection!

Thank you Caryn for my wonderful pincushion parcel received yesterday (in the hugest box ever LOL).



Caryn was my secret swap partner and she excelled herself in the pincushion stakes!!
Look at this beautiful pear!



Now how am I supposed to stick pins in this??!!!



But that wasn't all, Caryn also made me this yummy pincushion...


Good enough to eat! I love the little seed beads all over it. Gorgeous!

Still that wasn't all, Caryn had been lurking on my blog (as I had done on my partner's blog) and sent me these wonderful rose fabrics for my hexagon rose project.


They are super.

Thanks also to Linda who hosted this well-organised swap. I enjoyed both sending and receiving as well as meeting fun new to me bloggers!

The pincushion has landed!

I signed up for a great swap hosted by Linda which involved making a secret pincushion for a mysterious person.
My partner has such a great name: Ginger Patches!
And Tammy a.k.a. Ginger Patches likes cats so it was obvious what kind of pincushion I should custom make for her...



On the back I sewed some 'Ginger Patches' too...



If you want to see it on her blog you better be quick because I believe her kitty really likes it too LOL
