This was only my second swap and I love them. That reminds me that I must show my first swap to you because I was very, very lucky (when I received it my computer had died a horrible death and was in the shop all week!).
So how did it happen? The lovely Nova, over at a cuppa and a catch up, mentioned that she liked my rainbow bunting and I know how much I liked her pincushions so I asked if she would like to swap. I felt a little cheeky but luckily she loved the idea. She gave me the choice of what I wanted (how cool is that?) but I said I would love a surprise. And what a surprise it was!
How cool is that?!!!!!!
And the back's wonderful as well.
It is sitting very proudly right next to my machine with just the 3 pins in! I have to let you in on a little secret - in all the years I have sewn I have never had a pincushion. So now I have - and what a pincushion it is!
Thanks so much Nova - do you get the idea that I L.O.V.E. it?!!!!!!! xx
PS I'm totally open to the idea of swaps - for TOTALLY OPEN read WOULD DEARLY LIKE TO DO MORE SWAPS!!! So if anyone sees anything they like maybe you'd like to do a swap - I know I certainly would. Let me know! x

Oh its gorgeous! I pulled out some fabric for a scrappy pin cushion tonight! I'm seeing so many cuties around I have to have a go. We are cooking up a pin cushion swap at the Down to Earth Forums that will start soon if you are interested
GREAT pincushion! Loving the regular posting as well - I made some Annabel Karmel oaty choc chip things yesterday - pretty much raw inside, hurrumph.
thanks for the swap Abi, I love my bunting as you know ;)

That looks awesome. I'd be keen for a swap. I will have to look into tammy's pincushion swap too.
LOVE the pincushion. Hex obsessed woman that I am. Swaps are great... I'm scratching my head thinking about what I could possibly make you though!
