Like my new strawberry pincushion? =) I had to find the perfect pincushion/fob for my cool new scissors. I ordered these from a French website about 6 weeks ago and they just arrived. I had nearly forgotten about them! Ordering from this website is not for the faint at heart. Every correspondence is in French. Thank goodness for online translators! 
The pincushion is designed by Heather Bailey. I adore her patterns and fabric! You can find the pattern and kit in her new online store. This pincushion was fun, easy and fast to put together. I highly recommend it! I made one change to the directions. Instead of using the fiberfill that comes with the kit, I used crushed walnut shells. I picked up a 5 pound bag of them at the pet store this week for under $4! It is the nicest pincushion filling. Love it!
