The Friends in Stitching group I belong to had a Leanne's House swap. This is what I made for Tereasa.
The sewing bag is from the Precious Things pattern ...
and the pincushion is one of five published as Sarah's Pincushions.
Lucky for me, Tereasa's favourite colours include pink, green and red.
I enjoyed working with these fabrics from my Simplicity stash.
Just a bit sad that I've nearly run out of the pink fabric ... it's so nice for working stitcheries on.
Our next swap will be a bag that must include a stitchery or needle turn applique and a trim such as ric rac. Sounds like fun.
Lovely sewing bag and pincushion! The fabrics and stitching are just beautiful! :0)
