Hooked Yarn

Pincushion swap

• 6 April 2010 6:11 am

Today feels like my birthday but even better as I’m not a year older – I received my pincushion swap!  Talk about exciting, look at this magnificent speciman

and the back too

I honestly don’t know which side is my favourite, I mean I feel cruel not to use the front; look at that fabulous stitching and as for the design, I totally love it.  But the back; how glorious are those fabrics!

And the other ‘bits’ lurking in my parcel – sock wool – my mind is racing with possibilities already and my hand itching to get my 3mm hook out I mean, look at those colours!

And the buttons, yes, vintage buttons and that print, look at the colours, can you tell I’m excited!

There was also a lovely little treat in there for my boys, Rachel, thanks for being a wonderful swap partner and Claire thanks for organizing it!

p.s. Rachel should have received her’s now too, but just in case I won’t post a picture, just a little teaser instead!
