In spite of a myriad of pressing projects, I just couldn't help myself last night and put this wee fellow together—
Last week I managed to complete my '12 Days of Christmas', the on-line mystery hosted by Temecula Quilt Co. in January.
It all started yesterday when YD decided she needed to make a Teddy Bear.
As I gathered materials for her (realising that all of our Teddy Bear making materials are down in Auckland with her sister) I decided she needed her own pin-cushion.
[If the truth be known I've been waiting for an excuse to make this pattern!]
[Sorry, ED, I guess you'll be needing one now!]

Quilted and bound Finished size - 14" x 18" |
Quite like the 2 coloured outer border, gives it a point of difference.
I quilted it with a clamshell pattern - even though I used a stencil I wasn't always even but good practise nonetheless!
So now it's back to my pressing projects - I'm planning a lock-in in my sewing cave today to try and make some more progress.
Have a great day every-one and happy stitching,
Love that pin cushion!

ReplyDeleteWow!! Your french knots are sublime! How do you get them so neat? Gorgeous stitching. Super cute pin cushion too but no way could I stick pins in him... it's cruel. I'm starting a small wall hanging... if mine turns out half as nice as yours I'll be chuffed as muck!
