pears

Yesterday Happiness is Quilting had their Market Review party. They did it different this time... with stations set up throughout the store where you could watch demos for new products. It was really fun! I picked up a few patterns, including this pear pincushion pattern... It's by Sewn into the Fabric, a new one on me. But it was easy to make (obviously! I have already made three of them!)

Honestly, they are a little fiddly & fussy to make. You see, they are quite tiny. Even the pattern says Size: little. That amused me. This next picture puts it into perspective. You can see how tiny they are next to my sewing machine:

Awesome little Christmas gifts! And they only took some little scraps of fabric, felt & buttons from my stash. I stuffed them with crushed walnut shells to give them some shape & weight. Oh, and I bought the pineapple pattern too. I'm sure I will have some of those to share with you soon!
