My new pear pincushion!
The postie was very kind to me last week with a lovely parcel from Lauren arriving on Friday.
It was my pin-cushion for the super-swap Kate organised.
Lauren was very kind and also included a packet of yummy chocolate eggs (lucky I photographed them when they came, they didn't survive the weekend!) and very thoughtfully sent some foot fizzies to provide some relief for my dodgy ankle.
Lauren hit the nail on the head perfectly for me as I bookmarked an apple and pear pin-cushion tutorial when I was looking for patterns to make for my swappee.Now I won't have to make them up because she's done that for me.
Thanks Lauren, I love it.
Also a big shout out to Kate for organising this mammoth task and fitting it in among her own sewing, blogging, parenting, farming, baking and everything else she does - well done to you, and thanks.
What a super cool pear! I love the black against the other colours. And how nice to get some extra bits too xo

ReplyDeleteIt's just great. I love the pear pincushions I've seen in the last few weeks. I also love the vintage pillowcase Lauren used.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous pear! How did I miss this swap? It seems that everybody was in it except for me!

ReplyDeleteVery cool pear, lady. And one day I'll remember to photograph chocolate before I eat it! (very restrained indeedy!).
