Gifts made for Christmas

Front of Pinn


Back of Pinn

I made a couple of things for my friend Pierrette for Christmas. I made her some aprons and also a little Dog Pincushion and found just the right fabric for it with a tiny print of sewing items like cotton reels tape measures thimbles etc- This little doggie pincushion now is called 'Pinn'
