Sandra asked:

I have made the pin cushion. My inspiration was a sewing machine I found in Stamford charity shop, a Jones machine circa 1901. Every year they did different decoration design so it can easily be dated. I used a canvas and wool fabric. I glued some small penny washers together that just fitted the dowel and glued them in the cup and glue the dowel through them and then placed more penny washers at the bottom of the cup before filling the same design fabric with filler into the cup. The cup was a white one that I received for a birthday with flowers in. After painting i decoupaged with some rice paper I had printed and fussy ripped out the roses and stuck them to the cup. A birthday gift that now keeps on giving in my craft room. Thank you Debbie and Kimberley for the design. Xx
