Cat Bottle Cap Pincushion - March 29, 2012

Cat Bottle Cap Pincushion - March 29, 2012

         Since I gave my first cat bottle cap pincushion to my friend,  I made another one for myself.   It is about 1" across.   If I take the straight pin out,  I can also add a magnet to the back and use it as a refrigerator magnet.  <grin>

Sea Shell Pincushion - March 28, 2012

       I made another sea shell pincushion today.  It is about 1 1/2" across.  I gathered a circle of fabric and stuffed it before closing it up.  I then added a pearl and I love how it turned out.  I have a whole plate of them made now.
