I spent a very enjoyable week with a lovely friend who came up for a visit from Sydney, Australia. As she is a quilter too, there was of course much talk about quilts, fabric, quilting books, patterns etc. She brought me a lovely little kit to make a "Thirties" pin cushion. We decided to make one each and had a cosy day at home stitching.
This is my pin cushion, all stitched by hand I might add,
and this is the one my friend made!
Here they are together; aren't they just lovely?
I hope you are having a good week too.

They are really cute. It sounds like you had a lovely time together.
Very sweet! I love them!
They are great! I love the hexies and I am really falling for 30's fabric, not that I need more fabric but if I see some you never know what might happen!
Liebe Vreni,
sehr schön ist Dein Nadelkissen geworden. Es ist doch immer wieder schön, wenn frau mit liebem Besuch zusammen nähen kann.
Dir eine gute Zeit und liebe Grüße

How cute! I want one! :) soooo sweet, and what a great souvenir of your time together. And one can never have too many pincushions... I am sure I have a hexi-flower lying around... :)
Hallo Vreni,
wunderschön, Dein Nadelkissen. Zusammen mit netten Menschen macht es einfach Freude von Hand zu nähen, weil es sehr entspannend ist.
Ich wünsche Dir ein schönes Wochenende!

Is there a pattern or instructions?
Dorothy, can you email me please so I can send you the instructions.
I just love this pincushion, especially the rounded bottom. Did your friend get the pattern in Australia if so can you please let me know where also did you alter instructions to make the rounded bottom
TIA Karen in Oz
I l-o-v-e this. Could you tell me where you go the pattern? I am fixing to have surgery and this would be great hand work to sit still and heal and having something to do with my hands.
I would love instructions for this! !
