My 8" pincushion

My Indiana retreat group decided it would be great fun to do a pincushion swap.  I have loved these since I bought the Wool Crazy book.  So I got my part (the base) which is supposed to be about an 8" diameter circle done.  I had a small oopsie in trimming and then added to one side and ended up with an oval.  I just love the oval so I added the witch's boot and off it went.  I won't get to see it again until May when I go to retreat.  If you want to see some of the others you can go to Laura's blog or Conni's blog or Peggy's blog or Michelle's blog.  I did discover that I have a lot of fall colored wool, but not very much of other colors so some wool shopping is in order.

I like the oval, Vicki, and the boot is so adorable! Can't wait to see it up close and personal.
