I have finished the two little pincushions that I started many years ago. By hand, I button hole stitched 'round the hearts and then added running stitch on the edges of the light strip. The flowery stitch is one of the decorative stitches on my machine. I was inspired to use this after seeing Tali's little cushion. Turned out okay I think.
PINCUSHION NO 1
PINCUSHION NO 2
Each afternoon Oliver finds a quiet spot for a long nap. Couldn't resist showing these photos of him from yesterday. He's such a little sook!
How cute!
Through blogging I have discovered he has a double living in Paris! Tonya from Lazy Gal Quilting has a cat called Habibi who looks just like Olly. Apparently Habibi hails from Cairo and is one of a clan of four quilting felines.
Lovely pincushions!
ReplyDeleteVery lovely pincushions, and what a beautiful cat you have. I have been looking at other projects in your blog, and i'm very impressed about your work. Have a nice weekend.
ReplyDeleteYour pincushions turned out great! You really are working on getting those WISPs done! :o)
ReplyDelete...soon there is february *lol*
hmm, I don't know that Bibi looks just like Olly. Olly is thinner and less scruffy. Bibi definitely looks like his seedier twin though!
ReplyDeleteVery nice little pincushions..they would be great to make for the fundraiser we are participating in later this year for the Cancer Council...Olly looks very comfortable...
