Fun Friday...

Weather permitting, Tag and I take an early morning walk almost every day.  Here he was today at 5:21, leading the way.  (The shadow is from a parking lot light, not the sun.)


After spending so much time this week working on de-cluttering and reorganizing my bedroom (and I'm not yet finished!) and on cutting my scraps into usable pieces, I was more than ready to sew.  I didn't care what it was...I just needed to create!  And, the more instant the gratification was, the better.  Know what I mean?

Here it is...the skinny pincushion.  It fits right there in front of my Naomi Janome...so very handy.

I saw it this morning right here and decided to use some small scraps of Hope Valley by Denyse Schmidt that I ran across while working with my scraps.  I didn't exactly follow the original...just did what I wanted with it.  Measuring ~2 x 6 inches, it's perfect and I love it.

 
I hope you all have a great weekend! 

Happy Mother's Day!

I can't remember the last time I got up that early, lol.
Wonderful pin cushion, I need to gather up my scraps and makes some small items with them.

Hi Jacque:
I love this little pincushion! I think I have to make some for me and a few friends, too! Thanks for the inspiration and the link.
