I have packed one mugrug and goodies package off to Partner 1. Bye bye little Hoo - have a safe journey and settle down in your new home!
Still wanted a little extra for Partner 2 - so I thought I'd make a little pincushion...
She didn't ask for one I know but I've already made a pouch so just wanted something to go inside. First of all I made an attempt to make something like a cupcake pincushion...
Didn't quite like it enough so I get to keep that one and soldier on. I looked for inspiration and it came to me....
I love it and would happily have it back if Partner 2 doesn't like it! May have to make another one if she does. Little applique on the front and some of my Dan Stiles fabric ( from the Across the Seas baby quilt ) at the back! Added a bit of Dan Stiles selvedge as a little label and think it looks cute!
The mugrug and goodies are all parceled up so it is good to post on Monday!
Then all I have to do is wait until they arrive....! Oh and maybe open a parcel or two myself! Excitement level? Sky high!
