#131 - Valentine Pincushion...

Collect the first design in a collection of exquisite and elegant new Pincushions. This stunning heart-shape is beautiful, and so perfect for Valentine’s Day. In fact, it can easily be displayed throughout the year.The pillow is stitched with beautiful multi-colors of silks and over-dyed silks; with the addition of sparkling gold paillettes and beads, on two different colours of linen; pink and khaki. Fyi: Carnation Pink linen is discontinued, but Baby Pink is almost exactly the same colour. Learning and stitching the Buillion Knot roses and Fly Stitch leaves are a breeze with the clear directions found in the back of this leaflet. You will also find clear colour photos as a step-by-step guide, so you too can accomplish all the finishing in-hand yourself! I’ve also designed a little Scissors Keep and Fob which echoes the same design as on the pincushion. The matching set is just adorable! You will learn a number of specialty stitches, like Bullion Knots, and Fly Stitches with gorgeous overdyed silk flosses when you stitch this project.
