Pin cushion

A couple of entries ago, I showed some badly photographed drawings for a pin cushion I wanted to make.  Here is the final version, all stitched by hand.  It was very relaxing to do and I love the richness the shot fabrics add to the colour scheme.  I also dug into my bead collection and actually used six of them - so for one month only I may have used less beads than I purchased...  I've had these ones for a while and I really liked the oval drop shape.  This is going to be a project in Popular Patchwork sometime soon ... once I've written the instructions.
