Another fun project this month for the Across the Pond Sew Along: Skinny Pincushions. I hadn't seen one yet until I read about them on Amy's blog Amy Made That! and on Susie's Sunroom. I went for Susie's solution of stuffing the pincushion with cat litter to weigh it down and sharpen my pins, it really works! I decided to use the button fabric I recently bought. Love at first sight and it's quickly found a special home. To complement the fabric I added three vintage looking buttons which luckily match the colours in the fabric beautifully. The "tape measure" linen ribbon is by East of India. They make very high quality ribbons and this one has a very pretty packaging. How can you not like the quote it has on the card? Would make a lovely gift for somebody who likes sewing. I bought mine at Temptation Gifts and over the years I have bought quite a few...ehm, ehm. Linking up at TGIFF this week at Quokkaquilts, there's a great month of giveaways lined up!

To save you from a creative lull, I'll show you two fibre art exhibitions you can currently view online.
Made using tiny scraps of fabric, arranging them into a small collage; adding a snippet of vintage cotton lace and hand stitched details. I also allow the edges of some of the fabrics to naturally fray adding texture to the pincushion. Hand stitched in my Nottingham home studio, this unique, one-of-a-kind sewing accessory would make a welcome addition to any sewing room or craft room. This pillow style pincushion has been stuffed with fibre filling, and has a plain poly cotton backing, lined with a light weight wadding. Measurements: Approximately 4.5cm x 4.75cm. Would make an ideal gift for any sewing enthusiast, stitcher or seamstress. Pins and other accessories not included. Please see other listings for more designs and needle books to match. Colours may vary slightly to those shown due to different screen settings, but I do try to show as true representation as possible of the colours in the images.
