recipes

take a few ingredients ::
1. contrasting fabrics
2. sewing machine
3. over locker
4 fluff and split peas
and what do you get?
an over-sized table top pincushion!
it's nice and heavy and stays just where I put it, no more tipping over pincushions for me!

    Love the giant happy tree, would love to see one propping open my door! My only worry would be that the split peas might get damp hanging round a door and then smell musty or swell up or something. Maybe pea gravel would be more suited to the job?

    Wonderful blog, good luck with the fabulous new workshop.
