thank you everyone for the nice compliments on hav4boys' bluebird pincushion. i joined pinterest and found lots of tutorials and supply sites. it looked so intriguing that i bought a sampler set and tried my first piece - this bluebird. wow, you just poke a barbed needle into a wad of wool batting or wool roving. use your hands to help shape it and the needle to felt it. now i've made 4 pieces and i just started the fifth. i have enough knowledge already to start more difficult pieces. it is so easy and fun. don't be intimidated if you think you'd like to try.

lynnie, did you mean the bird i needle felted? i've done a hedgehog and i'm just ready to try other animals. i'm thinking a rabbit looks pretty easy. it does take some time, but i think it's worth it. at the speed you work i'd bet you'd have a couple dozen before PC's are due in june. lol

What a great unique pin cushion, such creativity here!
I just read the new thread, was I supposed to be sending a monthly pm? If so I totally missed that part. Sorry
Also, I haven't seen my partner post a pic, but I did get a pm that it was received.
