Caught Up!

I am happy to report that although I joined the Schnibbles group 5 months late, I have finally caught up!  YAAAAAAYYYY!  Last night while watching the AWESOME new  Discovery channel series call "Life", I finished the handwork on my Tuffets pin cushions.


I had some Califone charms leftover from a big bag I made a while back and they were perfect for those cute little sand-filled pincushions!! 
Talk about teenie weenie pieces!

And on another note, I do LOVE pincushions and just bought these two cuties on Etsy from a gal who raises her own sheep and uses their wool for her creations!  Are they not just adorable??? 




In case you can't see from the photo,
the turtle has a cute little snail on his back!!
She even sent me photos of her three sheep- Miss Dottie, Lucy and Cappucchino!!  Priceless!!

  1. Haha, that tickles me! Being a former sheep farmer myself, I'm all over this! Those are adorable, both the pincushions AND your teensy blocks!

  4. Did you enjoy making the tuffests? I truly did. I just haven't seemed to be able to fit in time (between all my other sewing) to make more. I just love the fabrics you chose for your tuffets - they're just great, Polly.

    And how cute are those wooly pincushions? Oh my word, my favorite is the owl. How cute is he? Too adorable. Why I have a fun interest in owls these last couple months, I have no idea but I'm just thinking owls are so cool.
