CGQC Pincushion Swap

I ended up making 3 pincushions for this swap.  The flower & 2 of the pink one.  They were small.  So, I went ahead and got a canning jar pincushion that I had made a while back.  Now I need to figure out which one(s)/what to send.  I guess my swap partner will find out when she gets her box...that I mailed out yesterday...lol!

Oh, and when I was making the flower pincushion I had gotten a little crazy with the glue gun.  There was this one spot on the petal that had a glob of dried glue.  Well, I found a solution, I had bought some beads & oval charms from Micheal's.  The charms had different words on them like:  wish, create, hope and believe.  So I went ahead and put one of those charms over the 'glob' and it looks so much better!  If you haven't noticed, I'm real proud of that flower pincushion...lol!


HAVE A WONDERFUL WEEKEND!!!
