Easter or Christmas

 My friend Cathy and I  decided to make this cute little Nat Bird pin cushion  for each other for Easter. It was in last months Homespun magazine. Above is the one I made for Cathy. I borrowed this pic from Cathy's blog as I forgot to take a photo. All made in Cathy's favourite fabrics French general.
 Here is my beautiful pin cushion made by Cathy in my favourite fig tree fabrics Avalon. I just love this range.
 Its just so cute. Thankyou stitching buddy.
Over the easter break while I  was sick  I hardly moved off the couch except to do a bit of stitching. I made this beautiful little ornament designed by Marg Lowe. Its way too cute to put away until Christmas so he sits on my shelf in the sewing room.

I have lots planned for the weekend, you can be sure I'll be back to share it all with you.
