I love this pattern and have the same fabric. What a pretty finish. Its good to sit back and just read some books. Enjoy

Look at you putting the rest of us to shame with your two finishes. Ok, well putting me to shame. LOL!! Both are so pretty. I'm on an alphabet kick so your alphabet pincushion is my favorite of the two, but I love them both. Congrats!

Looks like you have some fun books to look through. Enjoy your week off.
