New pin cushion and some Tilda makes




The house is quite today. Both the Cheebies are at my parents in law and I cant believe how productive my day has been as a result! I have a clean house, I have hoovered mopped and ironed, and I managed to squeeze in making this little pin cushion from my book.

I have quite a few of those terrible ill fitting over pants that go with little girls dresses. I can understand the need for them for babys but they still seem to come with older girls dresses. My daughter has never worn them and so I picked a pair apart for its fabric- thats the flower/butterfly fabric I used for this pin cushion.



I thought I would post these tilda makes as Kandi had reminded me ThatI still have them. The goose is from the crafting springtime gifts book and the dog and bear is from the homestyle book. I made the bunny too but ended up giving that away as a gift so I dont have a photo of that one.








Right, im off for tea and cake before I have a noisy house again.
