Wow Angie ...that turned out adorable! Can't believe your Swap Partner wouldn't just love
that to pieces!!! I am sure she did! I really like it not all embellished up. It makes it
even more awesome! I tend to over do on mine. I am the Queen of Embellishments...there is
a lot to be said for "Simplicity" Farmgirl! Great Job!!

Angie that is so cute...I think I would love one for my studio...need more wool? (Giggling uncontrollably here)
You did a lovely job...hope your partner was happy with it. When you get your pincushion from your pincushion partner, be sure to send me a picture.

Hi ladies, I never did hear from my partner on this and am hoping she's okay. I had so much fun making the pin cushion though that I can't resist posting a picture or 2. It's felted from 100% homegrown wool from my mom's(Keeper of the Past)farm. Thanks Mom! I only wish I had embellished it a little more. Patricia, I really hope you liked it and wish you all the best!

Thank you ladies for all the kind encouraging words for Jaiden. She is so tickled to be part of our community! I have pictures of her working on her project on my computer, as soon as I can figure out how to move them to here I will post a few.

Elizabeth, I am posting for my daughter, farmerette Jaiden who received your package yesterday. She absolutley LOVES everything you sent! She told me she has plans to use the felted moon ball as a "stress ball" against her bigger brothers and she is thinking of something to make with the eyelash yarn btw the colors were perfect!
She was so worried you would not like her pincushion as it was her first swap and first cushion ever. Did you find the ghost ornament she included?
one of these days I will be able to post pics.

Hey all! I got the lovely cupcake that Jaiden made for me. It was so sparkley! I have just the place for it in my studio. I just wanted to show you the cupcake that I made and I will post a pic of Jaiden's when I take a picture of it tomorrow in the sunlight!
This is my cupcake. I think it kinda looks like the Bride of Frankenstein with the stitches and the lace.
Thanks for having this challenge again it was fun.
