Whatcha Workin on Wednesday?

Hi everybody!

I wish I could save this for Pink Saturday, but I won't have access to my computer.

A few posts ago I had pictures of some different pink fabrics. Well, I completed my first stacked pincushion from some of them. I wasn't really sure if I needed to cut curved pieces or just circles and then tie the pearl cotton tightly around each section. I didn't have a pattern, so just made my own choosing to cut the curved pieces. I think it turned out ok, but I'm going to change the beads for some that have a little more bling to them.

I've also sewn a bunch of little heart pillows; they're stuffed but not embellished. Maybe I'll save those for the next Pink Saturday.




There are a few baby items that I've completed this week, but I can't post pictures till after the shower this Saturday so the surprise isn't ruined for my daughter. I can show you a sneek peek, though (hee hee).




One more thing - please be sure to read my previous post about the danger of sugarless gum to pets and pass it along to everybody you know! My friend's dog may have pulled through; we're still waiting for results of the latest bloodwork. If she beats this, it's nothing less than a miracle.

ttfn...

HI Phyllis, Thanks for visiting my blog. Yours is a fun read. I like the pincushions. Also your little shh! for the baby's door. I too want to shut down puppy mills. So we have a lot in common. Small world. We are having horrific flooding and mountain snow melting to fast so best go check our road. But I'll be back. Sharon
