Very cute ABD!!!

sikesjj 11-09-2012 04:17 AM

I am signed up and looking forward to it, this is my first pin cushion swap. I involved my 3 year old daughter, she told me what she wanted it to be and picked out the material. She didn't choose anything Christmas like, so I am making another one that is.

i just finished making pretty pins.
A few with crystals and pearls, 1/4" snowmen heads, 11/4" red ornies with white seed bead polka dots and 1/2" christmas trees with glass seedbead ornies. What a pain!!!! They're in the oven now, hope they come out good. Gotta make my kitty Zoey her pearl neclace, promisd her i would.
When i can, will post pic. Having knee replacement surgery on mon. Son is taking his tablet for a few days while im in the hospital.
Trying to make a few great or at least good things to go with this swap.

What do you use to make your pins? I'm rather interested in making some of my own, I never thought of doing this

cuppy 11-09-2012 05:23 AM

Am I signed up for holiday swap? Just checking twice to make sure.

cuppy

Mariposa 11-09-2012 05:48 AM

cuppy- yes, you are signed up~

lynnie 11-09-2012 01:33 PM

Mariposa, im on that list also, i hope.
Making pins, i try to use the longest pins i can find.
I use fimo clay with seed beads, tiny buttons and gems, like amythist beads, st silver beads, ect.
The gem catagory is glued on with crazy glue or hot glue.
They are more addicting than making pc.
Have fun and show us your ideas.

2 that I've made for the swap.Wool felt poinsettia and Santa......Ready to go....:)

lynnie 11-10-2012 05:39 PM

Love that santa made crom the chickie body, what a great imagination. Love the pointsettia also. Great work.
I use the longest pins i can find, usually hat pins or florist pins.

lynnie 11-10-2012 11:39 PM

Four more days!!!!!!!
I wish more of the people here would put more info in their personal profile. On my last swap, my partner put she had dogs, so i was able to add things for her fur baby. I can make little toys for kitties and puppies.if our histess tells us things about her/ him, we can add something for them. Sooooo.if you havent updated recently, please do.
i mean, im sending a pkg, so i might as well a little something extra

This is just my opinion, thanks for listering.

lynnie 11-11-2012 12:49 AM

3:48 am and just wondering, used to be on the swaps, ther was a page we could go into to see who was in the swap,there is no longer that page. Just wondering why.

Mariposa 11-11-2012 08:03 AM

Not sure why, but that page is no more when the change occurred~
