LInen and Lace Pincushion - and others


This is a small selection of the other pincushions and needle books currently available from Lynwoodcrafts:





I spent an enjoyable few hours yesterday working through my little horde of linens and lace awaiting recycling, trying to decide the best ways to cut and reuse the most decorative parts of the items. I ended up piecing together a collection of pincushions. This is the first:



The scalloped edge of a table mat was used as an applique panel for this one - once embroidered with a rose motif, I think it looks quite effective. The lace and button are also vintage finds.
