Ooooh! There's a letter in his bag for me! The sweetest pincushion has arrived! Wendy, of Snippets of a Quilter, sent this pretty pincushion all the way across Canada to MN. That's about 1,787 miles from her doorstep to mine. You need to be a very brave li'l pincushion to fly all that way. Wendy saw my dire need for a decent pincushion, so she made one up and sent this brave little cushion on it's way to Stillmeadow. It's settling in, getting cozy and warm after it's long cold trip across the frozen tundra. I don't have the heart to stab a pin into the little cutie...yet. But I will, Wendy! I promise it will be at my side, holding my threaded quilting needles tomorrow morning as I continue the stitching on Kay's quilt. Thank you!
Well aren't you the lucky girl? Lovely pincushion, and I can see why Wendy sent it to you. You poor girl, not one pretty pincushion in sight.... until now.....
ReplyDeleteOh, so cute. She looks like she is snuggling in quite nicely in her new home...
ReplyDeletethat is a cute pincushion! how sweet of Wendy to send it to you.
ReplyDeleteThat looks gorgeous. I've yet to own a pincushion too.
ReplyDelete(Psst... school holidays begin in two days. Mum has lent me her sewing machine with the quilting foot. Machine + lots of time = no excuses. How many quilts will I finish? I have 2 on the go since the summer holidays.)
I swear getting the mail is one of my favorite times of the day. You just never know what you'll find in there. Isn't that Wendy just the sweetest. Now you have a little treasure from her. I'd say it's making itself right at home :)
