More Little Somethin'

My daughter-in-law came to visit us this weekend. She is married to my oldest, who is deployed over in Afganistan, leaving her alone. She's about 3 hours away, so she came to visit. We went shopping, and she picked up some clothes for her upcoming vacation. But a couple of these things need some alterations. While I was working on these alterstions, I needed to use some straight pins (something I don't use while quilting) and discovered I needed a pin cushion! I had to find my pins and they were in a tin container. So, since I had just made some coasters for my sewing room, and had some scraps left over, I wanted a pincushion to match!

So I went here and made a simple four patch pincushion, that matches my four patch coaster! Whohoo!

I have been putting off the inevitable--I too need a pin cushion. I think you may have inspired me to make myself one tomorrow. thank you!
