Today is my day to share on the Pin It blog hop. I had the hardest time deciding what to make for the hop. My pincushion bookmark folder is loaded with the cutest projects. Should I make the crab...the blow fish....the purse....the kite....the cowboy boot....so many choices!!!! In the end I decided on a multi-purpose pincushion called "Owl You Need" sewing buddy that I saw here.
Meet Mr. Gray Owl:
Isn't he cute? Plenty of room for pins!
And here he is being my sewing buddy:
He has two pockets on his tummy that can hold sewing items. His wings are tacked down and other items can be slipped into that space.
I followed the tutorial except that I basted the feet to the front and tacked on the beak before sewing together with the back.
Made more sense than gluing them on the front after it was all sewn and stuffed.
Be sure to visit my fellow hoppers today to see the wonderful pinnies they have created.
Daisy Days - You are here!
Thanks to Madam Samm for organizing another fun hop and to Kristen for being a great cheerleader!
