Eighteen pin cushions ready and waiting for the December guild meeting. I hope all the officers and committee chairs like these. They were lots of fun to make and I like how they turned out. All out of stash also! Except for a the crushed walnut shells that I finally found at the feed store. I'm not sure whether anyone in the guild reads my blog or not - hopefully not, so the surprise won't be spoiled.
Sure feels good to have this commitment completed!
Like some of the others, I am interested in the pattern source. Also, stuffed with walnut shells? I have never heard of that. I have put lizard sand inside of pin cushions, but never walnut shells. Are you also stuffing with fibre fill? Excellent job in making these from your stash by the way!
I am also wondering what pattern you used for the pincushions. I would love to make some. I love they way they all look together. How did your guild members like them?

Ooh! That looks like a good something to do for my quilting buddies back in California. Do you have a pattern (or pattern source) you can share?
ReplyDeleteThese are so cute Patti! Crushed walnut shells? For the filling I take it!
ReplyDeleteI agree your pincushions look cute. A nice surprise for quilting buddies!
ReplyDeleteThey look smashing all together - I'm sure your guild members will love them.

ReplyDeleteFun, where did you find the pattern, or did you create it?
