May Technique

Now you have made me look at that photo again Katy I see that you are right. They could look very interesting overlaid in some way. Not about to do it though as I really do need another pin cushion here so will get on with that first.

Me again, whilst on this EPP binge I have made a simple pincushion.

Very nice pin cushion Sylvia, that blue fabric looks very familiar !Juliet

Very pretty Sylvia, you've got loads done this month, well done!

You probably rec ognize it Juliet cos it came from a shop around your (and my old) area. Maybe, anyway.

ThanksKaty, haven't done a thing about my 6th May journal though.

Lovely pincushion Sylvia - what a good use for hexies....mmm may make one myself. Looks like it takes 8 hexies and I know I have a few somewhere, just where is the question.

I just remembered that I also have some little hexie shaped tea cups - who knows, I may be able to do Pam's teacup style pincushion but it won't in the near future as too many UFO's..

Sylvia I really like your pin cushion I think I'll have a go at making one. These hexies are quite addictive once you start making them. Today I've made some needle cases for a charity craft stall. I enjoyed the hand sewing for a change.

Aude.

They are lovely Aude. Now I will have to make some of those. I do have a big stash of tacked hexes so am in with a flying start. What did you use for the needle holder inners? They would obviously make great little pressies for sewing friends.

I used white felt for the inner and I also put a small piece of wadding between the fabric and the stiff card on the front and back of the cases (hope that made sense?)

Aude

Aude they are brilliant and you have been busy...so many.
