Loopy Lou's Adventures Into Handicrafts: Flower Pincushion

Saturday, 7 January 2012

This has been on my list of things to do for some time, a sunflower pincushion. You can find a great tutorial here - http://genna-crossstitchandcrochet.blogspot.com/2009/10/sunflower-pincushion-tutorial.html. There are plenty of pictures and clear instructions that make the whole process simple to follow.

This has also used up some more of the red scraps in my stash. Hopefully, I can add some of different colours as the year progresses.

Gina E. said...: Ditto to all the above comments! I love it, but when I clicked on the link to read the instructions, I thought no, I won't add this one to my wannado list. Yes the instructions are very clear, but it still looks like it would take ages to do. Well it would take ME ages to do, lol!; 8 January 2012 at 07:23
