One pincushion for me if possible.

i think it was carolinepaj that hosted a needlecase exchange last year. i could be wrong, it happened once before.....

hi, louise! glad to see you!

Thanks nancia & OKsewnsew.

I have been working on a SMALL piece of my pincushion. It is
part that will have emery sand for sharpening pins & needles.


THAT is all the "clue" I will give at this time.

Louise, what color?????????

No no no not telling that either.

But I like this idea so much I just might have to make one for myself.

Its addicting, i have about five needlecases made and about four for the pincushion. Soooo much fun!

Welcome to the swap! Glad you joined us. It's gonna be fun!!

Hello and welcome to the swap. Glad you are here. It's gonna be a blast!

Louise, that sounds like a challenge! I am always throwing away dull pins and needles. Hmmmmm.

I also have TiltedEars for one but not sure which group or both yet. If I have missed someone, let me know!!

We need more international swappers!! Right now we only have one friend not in the US. Please invite and persuade our international friends to join us.

I made a cover for a needle book but don't like it, so starting again. I have the main part of the pincushion done.

When will we know our partners? And will both go o the same person or different people?

I am closing the swap out on March 31st at 5 pm CST. Going to get you partnered up no later than April 3rd. No we will all have a different partner.

Thanks, I looked at the first post after I asked, I should read first!
Glad I have plenty of time.

I sent you a PM but forgot to say what I was going to make.. I will make one of each. good to see some friends on this swap.

Welcome Nelda!

I am down for a needlecase .

Hi everybody, so many familiar names! Hi Nelda --

I'm in for this, and I'm in for 4 spots. Sister Laura (Blue Cat) will kill me for this but there ya go.We have been making PCs and needle cases since the last swaps! (Lynnie, how are you feeling?)

Blue Cat sister will be in for this, too.

Hello, Sucia! Glad you joined us.

OK, I'm in! Watch for my PM!

Sucia, thanks for asking...doing great, just got over double pnemonia, started my blood infusions.
Im doing super. My new knee is soooo much better than the old one. Everyone who need a new knee, go get it. I shoulda done it ten yrs ago. I vot it all, a great little condo, great cat, a super husband and son, great friends and a great support system and friends here. I couldntbe any luckier or more blessed.

Lynnie you are so sweet. Hi to everyone else. Glad we are having many to hop aboard.

You know what, im haveing such a good time on this swap, sign me up for a needlecase. More fun to share with everyone.
The more the merrier!!!!

i am on my way to ja's to get MORE supplies. i'm thinkin i have 6 of everything already. wish me luck and self-control! here comes trouble!!!

Just made another needlecase.
im having a hard time finding the 'accesories' to go with my pin ushion ideas.
i think i need to go to an antique store, or change my idea.
I think thats the ticket here, change my idea, make my life easier.
Oh well, here i go again, back to the sewing room.

O.k. just finished my pin cushion. Spent 2-1/2 hrs. Making it. My hands hurt, but it came out awesome. If anyone remembers my christmas pincushion for the swap, its along those lines. Enough hints. Oh, and i made a matching needlecase, sooooooooooooo,you can give me the same person if wanted, coz, well, they kinda match. I have no camera or smartphone. My phone is so dumb, seriously, it is. Its about ten yrs. Old. I lost the back, and dont want to give it up. Costs only $8/ month. Yeaaaaaa, more money for fabric!!!!
anyway....im done!!!!!
whats everyone else working on??????

Oh, stupid me, the reason phone talk, no photos, no camera, so whomever gets me, please post a photo. Thanks

Welcome to all of our new participants! I am excited to have you all join me. Since this was my first shot at hosting, I figured I would be all alone in the sewing room, well I just have a corner right now; but, I have a plan.

Lynnie, all I can say is PICTURE (please). The suspense is KILLING ME :)

Nancia, I hope you have the coupons from ja. I just got the monthly flyer, my monthly text for 25% off entire purchase, and I have downloaded the J app for my android phone that always has % off several items.

Ashjoy,

Just have fun. I love getting pincushions from new members. You'll do fine.

LOL. Just to set the record straight, I didn't kill Sister Melissa (Sucia) for joining. I just reminded her that she needed to save money for the postage in April since we won't have any money in May yet.

I'll join for two needlecases.

I am not fast like lynnie with getting my things done. :D

oops!!! i meant two pincushions. i hope to eventually win one of lynnie's concoctions. :thumbup:

Ok, I have to go ahead an say, put me down also for 1 needle book too.:D

I will see wed if a friend can post my pin ushion. I hope so.
I drive myself nuts making these goodies, sear hing out different ideas
And techniques. Sometimes i go back to the same old standbys,
seems people like them. Or at least, i think they do.
Have fun today everyone.

hey, lynnie` i've got an idea! i'll make you one of my mug hugs and you can make me one of your pincushions. sound good?

I think we have bribes going on here. :D

Sure nancia, my kitty is grey with golden eyes. She wears a real pearl neclace, and a pink scrunchie. She is
Sooo spoiled. She has three bells and a pc of dichronic glass around her neck and a silver plated treat dish.
do you think shes spoiled, or just over loved.
What color, theme and color would you like, ill start it now.
