Pin cushions & cream tea!

We've been at it again! We made 6 pin cushions. Two in red and white spots with co-ordinating white with red spots ribbon. Two with Cath Kidston blue rosalie fabric and two in her white rosalie fabric. All the backs are solid red in colour which we added interfacing to to give them some stiffness and and a certain quality! These will eventually form part of a sewing kit, the other two items being a needle case and a scissors case.

We had a voucher for our local garden centre entitling us to a 'buy one get one free offer' on a cream tea. So off we trotted - it would have been rude not to! We sat there in the cafe and trooped out our pin cushions! Two scones each later, we set about turning our pin cushions the right way out and made the little bows too. We figured that other people got their laptops and notebooks out, so why couldn't we get our work out too! I know we're biased but I think our work looked infinitely more enjoyable! And as for the cream tea? Two scones, clotted cream and jam - not bad for a day at the office!
