NNC PINCUSHION EXCHANGE 2012

A box full of pinkness!

This is an annual project we do at NNC. You see, we love pincushions and don't have enough of em cute little creations too precious to poke needles with. So they are left on display cabinets, we collect them because they are little works of art, painstakingly handmade and made from the heart. Here's my pincushion this year...

Crochet cupcake pincushion for Radha.

With fluffy ribbon and pink cupcake silicon liner.

And these 2 special pincushion is from Ulla of Sweden. Aren't they gorgeous.

Linen and a little sakura wee pillow. Check out the beading in the middle.

Thanks Ulla for the stash of fabrics too. What a lovely shade of pastels.

Denim Tote & Little Pom-pom Shoes

 What do you do with excess denim cut-off from jeans? (My dad altered his jeans into shorts and gave me the excess leg for crafts!)

I cut out this cute little motif from an Ikea fabric I bought eons ago.

A simple applique.

Some buttons to embellish.

Voila! A fully lined poolside tote. No wastage.

Here's a little Radley inspired purse I made for Hayley B.

Add some buttons for some play money.

Here she goes shopping!

Added pom-poms to cute little shoes for Hayley B. Proud to annouce that she can put on her own shoes now!
