Pincushions

I made these for a friend of a friend who wants them for her book club. I have made similar ones couple of times now.

The inspiration is from this creative web site. And, they are beautiful.

                                       


This time I added a few of these coloured pebbles to the bottle cap so it will not topple. [not part of the tutorial]


I also tried one with an empty spool, of course no pebbles for that.


  
........ easy and fun to make. 


I hope her book club will like these !

Thank you for stopping by,

Until next project,
xxx,
Gaia
