insert pin here

I'm hosting a pincushion swap on my facebook page !

Very remiss of me not to let you know here in case you wanted to be in it too.

The only thing is you must be a facebooker.

I won't be swapping this pincushion of mine , I really do need a big one as

I tend to just throw my pins in the general direction and hope some

land in the right place . 

Even if you can't join in on facebook you may need a new pincushion anyway.

Here is the link to lots of tutorials on Tipjunkie if you need some inspiration . 

Thanks for visiting , nice to see you !

my place and yours

My place and yours this week is your favourite pincushion.

My favourite pincushion was originally a double layer 

sponge cake with a lovely embroidered doily

for the icing and beaded trim.

One day I was desperate for some stuffing and ripped the

bottom layer apart to pinch the filling.

So now I have just the top layer sitting in my beautiful

green glass bowl beside my sewing machine.

I really need a big pincushion as I often don't look

when I'm throwing pins about and this way I have

a better chance of some landing where they should.

Thanks for the chance to play Vic .
