I just finished stitching Miss Mary Mac's Pins & Needles Pincushion. It's about 3 inches wide and 8 inches long, stitched on 40 ct. I love long narrow pin cushions and wanted to do one of my own. It's prim without being too prim, more of a sophisticated prim look. I stuffed it with tiny glass beads, so it has a bean bag feel, which I love. This is the first of a series of sweet, smallish designs. They will all be called Miss Mary Mac's something as that was my nickname all through high school and I like the way it looks in the prim typeface that I am using on my patterns. I am trying something new and will be selling the chart in my Etsy shop http://www.etsy.com/shop.php?user_id=5871581 . Thanks for stopping by!
I love it! Great work!

ReplyDeleteAnother person who is very happy that she's found your blog Mary. We missed you in Nashville these past years and were wondering how you were doing. Now I can check your weblog.
ReplyDeleteWonderful pin cushion! I never thought about stuffing them with beads, but I'm loving crushed walnut shells.
