Flower Power for Allsorts

Good Morning All
Allsorts Challenge this week is a nice easy one - Flower Power.

I used some flowers I had in my stash to decorate two Pin cushions.




I bought afew  boxes with pins inside from local China shop, I thought they were too nice to throw out so decorated them up after stuffing the top to make into a pin cushion.


I used paper flowers and organza ones to decorate.
Hand crochet doily on the top of each.
They go to the local bar to sell for charity.

This is how it started off with a little sponge stuck on top.

We have a prize from our sponsor - Tattered Lace.

    What a brilliant idea, I love your Pincushions.
    I have a few of these boxes with bits in them, they might just be in line for alteration.
    Thank you

    Two gorgeous pincushions Wendy. The flowers are beautiful. Thank you for sharing this with us. I keep telling myself I must make a pincushion. Will have to look for a small box and get Crocheting.
