This is the pincushion i stitched over the weekend it was a free kit from britians no1 cross stitcher. Its not bad im not great at normal sewing so im quite happy with the finished thing. The picture isnt very good as i scanned it because for some silly reason if i plug the camera into my laptop it knocks my internet off.
Im back to stitching on wnter rose(lavender and lace) im quite pleased with how its going not too much to do over half done.
