After making the starfish pincushion, I wondered what one would look like made with 2 grandmother’s flower garden blocks. So I grabbed 2 GFG blocks I had stitched together and six one-inch diamonds and made this pincushion.
This is the other side. It’s rather thick and not even my longest pins come through on the other side. Stuffing this one was much, much easier as I had found a bag of fibrefill (or whatever it’s called). Way easier to use than tearing off bits of cotton batts and stuffing those in!
I’m not quite sure what this look is, other than maybe a just waking up look!
The heat and humidity over the weekend were high. However, it has broken a bit now and is quite pleasant. We had absolutely torrential rain yesterday and a portion of the roof garden that is on an incline seems to have turned into a wee bit of a mud slide. One of the cleaning staff has been out on the roof garden for hours this morning trying to clean it up.

The pincushions are really lovely! I’ve been itching to try English paper piecing, but hesitant to start a whole quilt. These are the perfect solution. Do you mind if I ‘borrow’ your idea?

Great pincushion! I started quilting with the tomato one from the sewing shop, but recently I got a handmade one and I like it so much more. I’m going to have to take a cue from you and start making some.
