I made up a some more Kitty pincushions from Rock River Stitches.
They are fun to make and work up quick. I think they will make great gifts to send for fun.
I am experimenting with different materials to see what I like best.
This one I did in black material for the kitty and a homespun for the base. I like working with homespun, it is soft and easy to handle. This one is my favorite, so far. The picture does not do it justice. I had extra room, so I put two spools on it.
The second one I did in ticking for the base and the kitty is made of wool. Wool is definitely easier to work with, and it hides a multiple of mistakes;) I really need to pay attention to my sewing, to keep the circles in shape, but mine end up a bit off here and there. I took some yarn and made a little ball out of it, love the look. I will make more when I get a chance and try different types of wool too.

Debbie...I LOVE the black one! Well...both are adorable, but the black one is singing to me! And, I don't even really like cats that much. Those are adorable.

Debbie - these are way too cute - love them.
They both are so cute it would be hard to choose a favorite!
These pincushions are really cute! I bought the pattern and onasburg fabric, but also the new machine, so I am concentrating on learning to use it before I start anything new. Pincushions would be fun thing to start with. At least you make them look fun to make.
Oh SO cute! Love them!
