Hello friends
For the first time in ages I spent a few hours at the sewing machine over the weekend - pure bliss! I could have spent all weekend sewing to make a dent in the ever growing "to be finished" pile but I had too much fun trying out some recipes from my new cookbook, love it, and also catching up with some dear friends that were in town for a few days.
This little pillow was my holiday stitching project - I'd taken it away with me and managed to get about three stitches done, ha ha!
Bloom Pincushion by M Designs
JCS March/April 2011
stitched with recommended threads and 32 ct mint green belfast
I couldn't resist ordering the latest pair of Ginghers from Carol's DH and they arrived on Saturday. Such a pretty pattern :)
I hope you had a great weekend too!
See you soon xx

Your pincushion is lovely, Katrina! I've been meaning to get on my sewing machine, but haven't done so recently - must do that during the week.
Those Gingher scissors are beautiful!
Your pillow is gorgeous as are your new scissors.

Wonderful, wonderful finishing! ooOoo the scissors are too fabulous. I may just break down on those. ;) http://astitchersstory.blogspot.com/
That's a great design and it looks great stitched and finished. So Spring and Summer like.
Your pillow is so cute! And I had to get those scissors too - every time I get the email that the new ones are coming out - my order is in within minutes!
