Details of swap:Are you still using that sad, old tomato pincushion? Do you need another pincushion? (and who doesn't?) Perhaps yours is holey and in need of repairs? Or lost somewhere where your ferret hid it? Well then this is the swap for you!
We will be swapping
one Medium sized Pincushion.
(Edited to add -- TWO bottlecap pincushions may be subbed for one medium-sized pincushion. Please discuss this with your partner!) This can be knit, sewn, crocheted, felted, whatever will work for pin cushions! They can be hand-sewn or machine sewn.
But no tomatoes! Since Pin Cushions are small, please be sure to make it your best work!
*** If you wish to swap more than one, please consult with your partner. You must be able to post photos in the gallery. If you cannot, then please let your partner know, so they can take a photo of their handiwork before they send out.
*** We ALL appreciate good communication, so if you have any questions or comments
