pincushion swap

I've just taken part in the pincushion swap hosted by House of Pinheiro and Sew Far Sew Good which I heard about in the lovely Mollie Makes magazine.  

This was my first swap and it was great fun. I was in my element and I would love to do more swaps.

I designed and made a little pincushion and needlecase for my swap partner, embroidering a panel of white calico and and adding some patterned panels around the edges.  The needlecase was rustled up using some cotton scraps and felt.  I also sent some little buttons from my stash.  Maybe they will be put to good use.


I wish I had taken a better photograph, I'm still honing my dodgy photography skills.  Hopefully this gives an idea of what it looked like!
