Thumb pincushion etc.

At one of our Guild's quarterly meetings last year, kits for making a thumb pincushion was handed out as gifts to all attending.  Whilst on holiday during December, it was one of the projects I finished.

I could not remember the instructions and asked my good friend Google.  If you want to make one as well, you can get the step-by-step instructions at Annies Crazy World.

During October 2011, I attended a Quilt and Craft Fair hosted by the Needles and Pins of our Guild (read this post).  Inside my Goody Bag I found a prize ticket for a Fabric Origami Bookmark which looks like this:




As a lot of effort has gone into preparing these kits, the least one can do is to take the time to make it.

      No, the kit for the bookmark is not the same.
