This one is super cute, but a lot of work. I think it would work well in felt.... http://thepaintedquilt.blogspot.com/...-tutorial.html

I do the same lynnie. I can look for hours at the pin cushions, needle books, and the mug rugs too. So much fun just getting ideas, and seeing what others have made. Such creativity out there.

I agree, the pc is cute in felt. the pcs. are too small to have to turn down, it's best done in felt, and I would love to do it in felt or would be happy to get it in felt. I loved a bunch of ideas, but they'd be better in felt too.
(we're only supposed to use cottons). on oct's I wanted t use satin, but rethought it and used cotton.
some just scream to be made in other fabs.
junebillie, i'm glad i'm not the only person who browses when i'm bored to find new ideas to use as a jumping off point. Can't wait to see what everyone is doing for next month.

Ok girls the side swap PC's are sent today in the mail. Sorry it took so long.

Red, don't worry about it - you did not take long - thanks for letting us know. I assume you received your side swap, it was due for delivery on the 13th.

thanks for the heads up, red, can't wait to see what I get, don't forget, I have no camera yet.

The pin cushions are due to arrive today girls. I hope you like them. Life got a little busy lately and it was cutting into my sewing time.
I got into too big of a hurry lynnie, I didn't take a picture. Sorry I can't show it on the board. I loved this idea of re-doing a wrist pincushion in bright fall colors for you.

That is because Red is getting excited for me to be there next week! I so need the break. Between the fair, health of DD and DH, garden, quilting, and work, I have not had much sleep. Looking forward to being there.

I have been thinking about it all morning quiltermomma. Counting the days now.

you are soooo lucky to have a quilty get together. have fun.
red, got my pc's today. that finger one is so cute, wanted one for myself, but always made them and gave them away. now I have one. I love the wrist one also. where did you get the part that goes around your wrist?????? such a clever idea. I love them both, we really have a great group here, all so thoughtful and creative.
can't wait to see what red and momma come up with together. Monday I go to the city to see dotty (dotcomdtcm). my son, the cutie patottie is driving me, that kid drives great in nyc traffic. I gotta pat him on the back for that one.
and for driving me too. have a great weekend everyone. show some pics of what you're doing
