Crazy Patch Pin Cushions

Along while back I joined a Crazy Patch Pin Cushion Swap with


I am the only one left to recieve mine except
I have Sandi's to send off still..
I got it finished at my retreat this past weekend

It has circled the world..
From the states to Australia and back..
And she is ready to go home now.

It come to me like this


And I made it look like this


I added a flower pot with flowers to her block


As soon as I see mine headed home I will send this out
So we are recieving them about the same time
How exciting will that be?

I cannot wait to see mine
I haven't even seen a glimse of it since it left home
I think I am done with swaps for a bit
I am not cut out for them I believe.
Althought Fiona did a great job
As hostess on this one.

Happy Swapping ladies..

Your little flower pots and flowers are great, but I love that you included the dragonfly. How do you like this crazy quilting? It is habit forming and makes you want to collect everything that you can put in a crazy quilt piece. Can't wait to see yours.
Hugs, Pat

I hope by now you have received your pin cushion. I am sorry to be so long in commenting, I have been away. You did a really nice job on the pincushion and your flowers added a lot.
