Pincushions

At the meeting on 22nd Jan we had the option of making a mouse pincushion or an owls pincushion.  Pauline was  Mighty Mouse and Chris was Brown Owl.  Unfortunately I can't remember the names of all those making the owl pincushions but suffice to say several chose to do the mouse and several the owl version.  Chris took lots of lovely pics, only some of which are here now - there are more to follow.










For those doing 2 of the Japanese style pincushions the one for the bran tub should be brought to the February meeting, which is on the 20th.















Chris has set us a challenge - to do a doll in the style of Julie Arkell.  If anyone hasn't seen the dolls she makes you can check some out here or search Google.

Just to say

Thought I'd post in case anyone pops by to see what's going on, or not.  I haven't received any pics from anyone from the December meeting which is why I haven't posted anything.  Don't know whether this is because people haven't sent them yeat or perhaps they've made a mistake with my email address.  I have emailed Chris to let her know.
