Friday Favorite




I have been a total slacker on the blog front lately.  The weather has been so nice here that it is hard to sit in front of the computer during the day!  I have been in my office creating on and off for the last month.  I find that
 my creativity is more sporadic during the summer when the weather is good and I am out an about more.  I did create a pin cushion that I think turned out rather well.  I found the silverplate creamer at the thrift store, sewed up the fabric into a round shape, stuffed it with batting and then stuffed that into the opening of the creamer.  Before I stuffed it into the top of the creamer, I sewed a vintage button on top of the pin cushion.  I did not want to permanently affix the pin cushion to the creamer because I know the creamer will tarnish and I will want to polish it when that happens.
