WIP Wednesday - Martinique Pin Cushion

WIP Wednesday at Freshly Pieced


Currently in Progess -
Swoon
Route 44
Nottingham Star
- Lincoln
- ISTH - Schnibbles

I've been quilting up a storm this week, so didn't get to my current projects - except for I did make my first block for my Schnibbles quilt.  I hope to have this quilt top completed before Sunday - so I've got a lot to do with this pattern this week!

After I had the Schnibbles all cut out - I had a few scraps left.  In my effort to use up all my scraps I made this last week.


A little pin cushion with only the aqua color from the Martinique charm packs I'm using.  At first I was thinking I needed to add in some color - but I didn't, and love the results.  Its about 4 x 3 inches.  Cute and little.  I put batting on the back side of the front and quilted it before sewing it together.  It is filled with a mixture of crushed walnut shells and pillow stuffing (is that what it's call?)

At least I finished something this week other than client quilts!

Pin Cushions Galore

I've had a few pin cushions sitting around waiting to be stuffed for ages.  I finally got around to doing it.  Here are a few pictures of what I've been up to.



















Can you tell I'm on a Buggy Barn kick?  I have 2 more in the works for this year - but I think I'll give it a break for now.  Just since taking these pictures I have made 4 more pin cushions from my Bliss scraps.  They are pretty dang cute (if I do say so myself).  I'll post some pictures as soon as I get the next batch stuffed.  All the cushions above are for sale at my Etsy store.

Quilting Update

Although there has been very little update in the quilting department lately - I actually have been rather busy.  An order for 12 table runners is half way completed.  Six more to go - hopefully within the next night or 2. 

Two quilts have been quilting finally along with a cute table topper.

And last but not least - a little pin cushion....I think there will be plenty more of these to come.


I love a cute little Christmas gift!
