it has been a while since I have created one of my favourite things ... namely a pincushion.
So yesterday morning that is exactly what I did. And guess what I used for the embellishment of the pincushion? ... I used one of the seam binding roses I made for my latest tutorial. I almost forgot how much fun I have making these little creations and I am going to make a few more new pincushions in the future.
This one is just so neat.
I thought it would be nice to use lots of different textures for the pincushion and so I used silk noil (raw silk), a little piece of vintage tatting and vintage pearls, seam binding of course and ... leather. I had 'found' my little leather stash in the bottom of a basket in my cupboard over the weekend and I am glad I did because the little leather leaves are perfect to finish this little creations off nicely.
I have taken many photos so you don't miss a thing.

And this is my little newest creation ...
... another tattered and tarnished pincushion.
I hope you have enjoyed my latest creation and I am working on another one as I write this post that I will share with you lovely bloggers soon again.
Until then my dear friends ...
... I hope you are well and life is treating you kind.
Have a peaceful and creative day,
Karen B.
