Hey all, yes I am still around. Haven't stopped by lately because,
well, I broke my other lap top and had to wait to get a new one . Yes, you read that right, I broke my computer. Very silly really, the other night the cats were fighting, & I jumped up to stop it & I guess I put the computer down too hard on the footstool . The screen flipped back...way too far & broke. It was just hanging there by some wires like a broken leg. Turns out to repair it would cost about the same as a new lap top, so here I am with a new one. Gregg now calls me amazon women. Guess I am stronger than I thought. Always thought I was a delicate flower. haha

So here I am on my new laptop & loving it. Much faster and all.
I joined a pincushion swap at Block Central forum. My partner likes chickens, & I found this cute pattern. It has beads for the comb & feet. Isn't it cute? It has a little caddy on it's back to hold thread & scissors . It is by Art Fabric Studio.
I made up one for my sewing room because the go together quite fast. You will never guess what color I made for myself. Deb & Penny know, yes it is Pink of course. I just need to sew the beads on that one.







Then I made this one too. Very Victorian and feminine.
Thanks for stopping in for a visit, until later,
Rebecca
