Here are some links for inspiration. (I'm sure there are more, if you are at a loss as to what to do, do a search (or google) on "Valentine Pin Cushions".

Hi Ladies,
So glad that we farmgirls have decided to stay in the swap! It is a one for one swap, so, you will get one partner and make one pincushion for that person. (some farmgirls are all ready to go, "champing at the bit" to send!)I have written out all of the names on slips of paper and will draw them to match folks in the morning! (Just in case we get any late night sign-ons)Look for a post somewhere around 8am EST.
Have Fun,
Kate

Sara/Ms-Artsy-Fartsy (love the name) I sent you an email. Thank you Kate. I was beginning the worry my little pinkeep would be homeless.

Begin each morning with a song in your heart.

Oh my...I got a quilter for a partner...pressure is on LOL! This is going to be fun. By the way Kathy, I don't even own a pin cushion. I have been using an empty box that a necklace or something came in with the thick batting piece still in it. So, anything you send will be quite an improvement LOL!

I see that I have doubled up 2 people Moodine and Claire Sky. I apologize for this!
ClaireSky =>Faransgirl
ClaireSky =>mrspinsneedles
Moodene =>Praire Flower
Moodine =>Crafty Stranger


mrspinsneedles =>ClaireSky
Faransgirl =>ClaireSky
Crafty Strange =>Moodine
Praire Flower =>Moodine

So Here is what the change will be:
ClaireSky =>Faransgirl
Crafty Stranger=>mrspinsneedles
Moodene =>Praire Flower

Faransgirl => ClaireSky
mrspinsneedles =>Crafty Strange
Praire Flower =>Moodene



These corrections have bee applied to the main list

Hi Sonshine4u...first I want to tell you I love your farmgirl name. Before I saw who was picked for me...I saw your name and thought how adorable that was. So, I am thrilled you will be my swap-mate.
I sent you an email as well, but I cannot find the one you sent me.
Can hardly wait to get started.
Hugs and Blessings,
Nancy
