Last Week’s Survey Results:
I love that there is an amazing story to go along with our survey from last week! But first, the results. We asked “What kind of pincushion do you use?” Turns out most of you use a magnetic pincushion! I did not know they were that popular, but can relate as that’s what I prefer as well. It’s so nice to be able to throw your pins in the general direction of the magnet and have them stick! A big thanks to my mom for our question last week.
I’d also like to thank Susan Nicol for an interesting story relating to finding things in tomato pincushions! She left a note that connected to a post Louisa from Louisa Quilts wrote over a year ago. She took her mother’s pincushion apart and you’ll never guess how many pins and needles she found! You can read her story here.
Today’s question is brought to you Amy from Friend’s Stitched Together. She has created a very cute tutorial for a Toddler Dinosaur Cape. I love this photo! I can only imagine what is going through his head, is he going to pounce on the tennis ball or not?! You’ll want to pin this one for later – the spikes are cleverly put together – and it’s made of fleece, so it sews up fast! This week’s survey is after the photo, don’t forget to Have YOUR Say!

What a cute little dinasour! 😀 Like most of the voters till now, I sew mainly for my kids. Now and then I sew something for myself. Most of the things I sewed for my daughter. I’d love to sew more for my son. But there aren’t many (nice) patterns for boys. Most patterns are for girls. That’s one of the reasons I started taking lessons in pattern making.
Lessons sound like fun Mirjam! I think I should likely do that too. I would love to be able to draft and sell patterns on my site also! Anyhow – for when I have more time…. 🙂
Not sure how to answer your survey. Here at the school I sew mostly for gifts for students and also for family – especially granddaughters! 🙂
