Again, an attempt to link my crafts for Early Bird Christmas Crafting
with the nature of my blog (no pun intended).
Today's Flowers are Flower Pincushions
that slip into the hole in a spool of thread
so that everything you need
when you are doing handwork
is at your fingertips.
A very long time ago, I ws gifted with one and I just love it. A quilting friend spotted it resting at my sewing spot and asked if I thought I could make her one. After several attempts, I figured it out. I thought it would be the perfect project for mini-gifts for Judith's Early Bird Christmas Crafting.

Karen: Really cute idea, you did a nice job one the flower idea. I played a little late.
That is so cute.....
What a creative take on this theme. These are so cute and artistic.
Very creative and cute idea! Gee, I do not even want to think about Christmas.
Those fun flowers are pretty cute, and useful too. Can't beat that.
Love the flower pincushions! Very clever idea and how great that you joined the "Early Bird Christmas Gifts" group. You'll be so happy you did when Christmas rolls around, which will be tomorrow! Nola

The pincushions are wonderful. I'm impressed! And it's definitely a flower so fits right in. :)
Oh Karen so cute and clever well done,cheers Vickie
How very clever and creative. So very cute and adorable these pincushions. Thanks for sharing them.
I have seen those before and you did a fabulous job on them.
Aww... I just love those! Such a fabulous idea. :)
What a wonderful idea. I do a lot of hand quilting and I would always stick my straight pins in the top of my quilting thread. When my boys were young they would play with my pins and make holes in the top of my thread so I could no longer stick my pins in....there would be just one great big hole in the top of my thread. I wish I had one of these flowers back then. I would love to make one of these. Do you know where I can get a pattern?
