I asked a while ago about whether one could hand-stitch a simple skirt and am pleased to have found a simple instruction...my eight year old is so enthusiastic, she's a joy to behold, stitching away. We just got our fabric at Walmart, and she picked a doggie print :) I picked a pink/green paisley. Thank you for encouraging us, it's been wonderful!<br />Gina in RIAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9186456.post-13736261066406958902010-08-04T15:03:30.607-07:002010-08-04T15:03:30.607-07:00Yes, what a great thing to add a few drops of scen...Yes, what a great thing to add a few drops of scent or spray favorite perfume on the stuffing before you draw up the threads and finish off the pin cushion. <br /><br />Ladies can choose the kind of print and fabric they feel happiest with, such as homespun blue for a country look, or little prints that interest them on a certain theme. <br /><br />These are crafts I have to squeeze in time for, Lydiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15530969871397361970noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9186456.post-46869429050302074262010-08-04T14:19:38.355-07:002010-08-04T14:19:38.355-07:00Oh, I love the pink gingham!!

After making the square one, I think I'd like a pink gingham one made in the round fashion of your last post, with a little delicate lace stitched around the circle on top, with some ribbon roses.....and couldn't the stuffing be scented with a few drops of rose or lavender essential oil, to give the whole sewing basket a delicious aroma? or Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9186456.post-11405046958276191792010-08-04T06:37:17.686-07:002010-08-04T06:37:17.686-07:00That is so pretty!
