Since we all get busy with homemade holiday gifts, why not start our season with a "new handmade pinkeep" {*Pinkeep is an old fashion name for a pincushion.}

Anyone who is interested let me know, I will head this one up.
Sign up will end on July 31st and will be due by September 21st.
This gives us plenty of time and no worries about Labor day or the kiddies heading back to school.

Details: Let's do them with a fall theme and color. Check with your swap partner to get ideas of what she would like.

So, is anyone interested?? [I will post the pairs on August 1st here.]

Pin keep, are those pin cushions?? If so I might be interested. Since it is for Fall- September, I can manage that money wise :)

Yes, a pinkeep is an old fashion name for a pincushion. Sorry, I should have stated that earlier. This should be fun! So I will count you in!

Put me on the list too, please!! I really could use a pincushion and haven't taken the time to make one and I don't want to buy one. I would love to participate!

That's a great idea, Joanna. A few years ago MaryJane had a pinkeep making contest and I bet Alee could tell you where you can find the pictures. Here are some I made. It was a lot of fun.

I love pinkeeps..so many possibilites for making them... I got an honorable mention in MJ's Pinkeep Contest..that was back in 2007..I don't see the link to all the pinkeeps anymore....here's the one I entered..the foundation of it is a vintage aluminum strainer.





I would like to join in but will pass this go around due to all the remodeling going on right now.
