A Little Project



A friend's birthday is today and I wanted to make a little something for her.   I found a cool tutorial to make a sewing caddy/pin cushion (link) on the Blue Patch Quilter's blog and thought I give it try.

 

When filling the caddy, I put steel wool at the top to help keep pins & needles sharp... and I made a bean bag to put in the bottom to give it a little weight.    I think it turned out nicely...
