It's not a usual day for a post from me, but I couldn't resist passing on this blog post I just read on Stash Manicure. You have got to check it out - Rae Ann has some of the best ideas for "renew, reuse, recycle" that I've ever seen!! And it's all stuff you've probably got already...... the best kind!!
And - my recipient got her package in the mail, so I can finally show off some pics -
I highly recommend this project if you need a little hand-work to take with you somewhere - it doesn't take a lot of fabric, skill or time - and it makes a great gift! Who can't use a really cute pincushion? Or, if you want to be creative like my granddaughter, it can be a hat, a frisbee, a cushion for sitting on....... the possibilities are endless!!
Later!
Sarah
PS - keep an eye on the blog archive count - it's getting close to 100, and that means "giveaway time"!!
And yet another PS - my husband tells me that talking about something on my blog is likely to catch the eye of people with power - so here's my birthday wish list -
An AccuQuilt GO! fabric cutter!! If you haven't seen this all over blogland yet, check it out on the AccuQuilt website - it's amazing! As much fabric as we process for our ministry quilts, it would be a godsend..... So anyway, I'm entering giveaways like a crazy woman, trying to win one. If you know of a giveaway, leave a comment and let me know where it is - I may have missed it! (Do you think my hubby suggested this so I'd quit hinting to him about it? lol!)
And here's one giveaway going on for the GO! Cutter - check out A Quilting Life!
Cute pincushion.
ReplyDeleteI just read Rae Ann's post and rescued a strawberry container from the garbage! Your post over there was terrific, too:)
ReplyDeleteWhat a cute pincushion! Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteAdorable pincushion! I can see why your friend was so pleased. :-)
ReplyDeletegreat pincushion!! did you machine piece it? how did that go for you? let me know :)
ReplyDeleteThat pincushion is so cute, and sounds perfect for your friend with the turtle theme. How cool is that button!
ReplyDeleteI hope you win a GO cutter, Sarah. I know you'd really put it to good use with your quilt ministry.
I love the pincushion you made. I also wish you luck for your trials in winning a GO!, I told someone on their blog earlier that if I had a dollar for every giveaway I've entered to win a GO!, I'd be able to buy one and not try my chance at luck in giveaways! Check my blog sidebar as I pop any giveaways I enter up there! Do you enter the one on Accuquilts FB every friday? I try to! Good luck. Hugs Naomi
ReplyDeleteI too love your pincushion! :)
