Anni Downs' 'Joy of a Garden' Pincushion from Homespun No 84 Vol 11 No 5...sure was a joy to make! I used a mug tree, that I already had, for the stand, and as I don't have alot of felt, I just made do with my fabric, where Anni had used felt.
I nearly have as many pincushions as I do bags now, but still use my dressing gown to put my needle in, when I do sewing of a night time!lol!

It's gorgeous Lisa! It really does look like a big flower! Great idea for the mug stand. Love the fabrics you used! And I love all your little mushrooms!
Oh it's beautiful! What a great job you did. I love the look of it in fabric. I have that issue of Homespun and you have really tempted me to give this a go. I just love it!
Looks great...well done!
What a lovely pincushion.
Oh you did it Lisa!!!
It turned out so beautifully.... This is still definitely on my to-do list!
It's gorgeous and would make very happy looking at that everyday and what a great idea using a mug tree!
It's gorgeous Lisa. My friend was in Sydney today and she sent me a photo of her holding Annie's! I didn't realise how big it was. Well Done!!!!

Hi Lisa, It doesn't matter that you still stick your needle in your dressing down, what counts is that you have lots of bags and lots of pincushions!! lol. Kind regards, Anita.
This is so lovely! You did a great job making it, I've never seen one like this. XO
Hello Lisa,
Just stunning. Maybe you could cut up your dressing gown and turn it into a pincushion!!!! Can't wait to see what you are working on next. Have a great weekend.
Happy Days.

Now that looks lovely... Of course you don't use what pin cushions you make, dressing gown is just as good....
This is on my to-do list also Lisa. Yours is absolutely gorgeous and I LOVE the idea of using a mug tree for the base.. very clever. I just counted and I have a total of 5 pincushions on my table!!!! Really! how many do you need? hehehe xx
WOW!! Totally love that pin cushion Lisa! Well done! Great idea to use a mug tree too!
