Crazy Quilt Pincushion Swap 2015

Well I am participating in my first ever Swap! It is a Crazy Quilt Pincushion Swap, hosted by Crazy Quilt Divas. We had a specific format to follow, using the tutorial by Lisa Boni Plooster. http://ivoryblushroses.blogspot.com/2008/08/sea-dreaming.html That way all the pincushions should "made" the same way, but I am certain none will look the same! Here's the story of mine! First, the Plan!

Layout with embroidery.

Putting it together. I wanted this pincushion to be really firm so it would hold up. Stuffed it so much, broke the cd!

Here's the finished product, signed and all!

And of course, no post would be complete without a couple tangles! The first one, I am showing a midway picture of the process. I couldn't decide if I should stay with just the circle or finish around, glad I choose to finish to the edge!

That's all for today! I will be sure and post further pictures when I receive my pincushion in exchange!
