Pincushion Revealed

I can finally reveal the pincushion I made for the swap on the right as my partner Georgina has received it.  I patchworked 6 pieces of floral fabric together for the top and used a pink felt for the base.  I couched a decorative braid around the join and put a couple of buttons in the middle.

I received a lovely surprise last week, a parcel out of the blue, from Anne of NanaGoGo fame.  It contained some lovely fabric swatches, a mass of embroidery silks (some being used this very afternoon) and a pretty card.  I think Anne knows me well, big smile.  Big thanks again Anne, now I must away and get on with my stitching!
