I'm still enjoying making these..
There are another dozen like the blue one below, and several like the red one, waiting to be stuffed!

Zakka Style Pinkeepers

Yesterdays Pincushions.
I like the idea of Zakka style... making something attractive and useful from scraps that might otherwise be wasted. Seems very William Morris, have nothing in your home that you do not know to be useful or believe to be beautiful.

I've spent today getting out my Christmas decorations and dressing my little tree.

New Pincushions

I'm still enjoying making these, using small scraps of cotton and linen and lace.

Pincushions

I've been making pincushions for a week or so, they are definitely addictive. Every time i tidy up some more of my stash I think of making another batch.
There are ones made with Linen and old lace or ribbon:


 One inspired by a bee button


Some bright ones with lots of buttons and Linen again... I like Linen.


And my current favourites, patches with Bunting! Some of these will be on sale at Winterton Quilters Christmas Fair on December 7th.
