Good Morning Crafters. I'm afraid its went from sunshine to being very overcast here to-day. But its still very warm and humid. My OH and I celebrated our 55 th Anniversary yesterday, how we ever reached this milestone I'll never know. It really was a family day and we both enjoyed that.
This was a Pincushion I made for Carolyn's birthday as both my girls sew, and Thanks to my dear friend Anne who sent me one as gift at Christmas, then kindly sent me 2 bobbins so that I could make one for both girls. I still have Annie's to finish. My only son Alisdair does not do craft of any kind, but he enjoys his sports. Enough of my ramblings as we are going out for lunch today.
Hope you all have a great weekend. I doubt very much if will manage to blog as Carolyn & Hamish are coming to stay, and are going to pay a visit to Aunt Annie as well. Hugs Rita xxx

Congratulations for your very special day! My parents celebrated their 55th anniversary back in March.
This is adorable. It looks so complicated to create otherwise I would definitely want to try and create one as I have friends who would be able to make use of one.
The little touches make it all the more special.
Rita, have a wonderful day and again, Congratulations.

Hi Rita,
an outstanding pin cushion, and such a wonderful future heirloom. I bet your daughters loved them.
May I say a big congratulations on such a wonderful anniversary. I do hope you and hubby had a fabulous day, and very memorable one at that.
It's my 30th at the end of the year, and as I forgot the 25th we hope to celebrate this one instead. I know I can hear you saying but women don't usually forget things like that. Well I did. lol.
Have a wonderful crafty day.
Lots of crafty love. Jenny L.
What a lovely gift. Anyone would be happy to have this displayed. Hugs!
