Lazy Daisy Stitch

Nothing to do since I've finished my tudung bawal. Spend some time doing these Lazy daisy stitch on felt scraps last weekend.. Made into another pincushion....Yes..I have no fresh ideas..keep on repeating the old one. As of these entry, left only one bullion roses pincushion in my care. The rest has gone into thin air. (Including this one)

This pincushion is(was) my latest craze. Trying to think out of the box, I tried lazy daisy stitch..It's quite easy and enjoyable. The best part is, I no longer have the hate for french knot...Used to hate french knot on my cross stitch before, always opting for the easy way out-using beads instead.


Now, am searching for more ideas to make more pincushion..called me a pincushion freak...Its a very handy express gift for any emergency occasion..yay!!

Paper Basket Of Pincushions.

The outcome of my rolled old newspaper tube...has been made to accomodate my collection of pincushions.Just need a fresh make over of varnish eh..







Looks like I have to make a new batch of bullion roses pincushion as it is getting lesser by the day. ( Noticed the round blue pincushion has gone missing?).

Pincushion Madness Part 2

I made 2 pincushion from (I supposed to throw away) felt scraps. I admit that its time consuming to make this but as I am in no mood to do anything else, I guess it paid off - a stress therapy that I don't have to pay for..

The pincushions are actually to make up for the loss of some item in my 'basket of small'.Relatives who visit tends to 'visit' my basket too and consider things taken as souvenir ...ha ha ha. Well, the good side of me only wants to smile . Then I have an excuse to make another.... and another..

Pincushion madness

Yes...I'm still in the bullion roses mood. Made several pincushion with bullion roses motifs over the weekend.. Dont laugh please, I just cant get enough of it. I know I'm suppose to finish the tudung bawal but I just cant help myself.

When cleaning out my stash box. found few felt pieces that should be thrown away but the good side of me want to do some thing with it..so there it is. There's another 2 pincushion that is waiting for the final touch up...I'll upload the pics later.

For now, lets just look at the pincushion..(hehehe..tak cantik mana pun tapi saja nak tunjuk jugak...sabor jer la ek)....On second thought..is it stingy or creativity?LOL.

Say..'Cheese' and Enjoy the Cupcakes..

I was not so in the mood to stitch over the weekend as my neck is having a small discomfort. It's a pain to move my head up and down looking at the charts. so..I used the time to browse the internet looking for a way to comfort myself..LOL..Furthermore..Musliha has challenged me to Stich A Long with her doing the Cheese Project..


It was during the Friday discussion with her that we agreed to test our so called 'expertise' to make pincushion from felt. Since hooked up with the exchanges activities, my newfound passion for pincushion is..how should I put it?...alarming..LOL. I dare not utilized the pincushion that my friends gave me . I can't ask them to make me a new one if it get dirtied or lost or smashed or turned into toys for the cats..can't I?. So with these felt..I am free to do what I want with it and I can replace it in no time...wink-wink..






Since I've lots of leftover felt from stitching the needlebook..I gave it a try..It wasnt a good masterpiece but I'm satisfied..hahahaa...Say 'Cheese'. everyone....


Realizing that I still have lots of scraps, I decided to make few more...cupcakes and quilt pincushion. As it was totally from scraps, please ignore the color combination..I'm using what I have in front of the eyes..I did not buy any new one...grin**




There you go..a family of felt pincushions that can last a lifetime....
