Thank you all for the kind words, prayers, and well wishes. MOgoggingirl.....you voiced my main concern...catching something else during my recovery time since my immune system is so weak. I will be watching this thread, and cannot wait to see what everyone makes. Perhaps you will do the swap again near the end of the year? Have fun everyone. Blessings, GG.

Found a dealer to fix my old machine. My new one is so plasticky, and my old one more metal parts, and better made. Talking about my sewing machine, not my cricut. Bought a new machine and just missed my old one, so I sent it in. Now I will have two. The new one can be dedicated to embroidery and I will use my fav for sewing. It is so old, but I still love it.

Cricut Crazy I am going to have to withdraw from this swap. Things right now are a little crazy here and I am not going to be able to do this right now. I apologize to all you ladies for the inconvenience.

If your swap is still on and it's not too late, sign me up please. Not my first swap, but it is my first pin cushion.
If it's too late, no worries.

A Big Wave to my partners SummrBrez and HodMom... I will do my best to make something you will enjoy using or giving as a gift to a friend..... If somebody else wants to join later tonight I hope that you will forgive me if I trade one of you to her as I am pretty loaded down with swaps right now. But since we had someone just drop out it gave us an uneven census. Nevertheless, I can manage it. Please write a little note and let me know what kind of pin cushion you would enjoy most - tea-cup style or something "crazy" ! Color preferences ?? THeme ??? This is a "Make your partner happy" kind of swap. I will touch bases with you tomorrow again. I have to go to bed now as I have a difficult day at work coming up and I am really tired already. Thanks for joining -let's all have fun with this ! ~ Barbara

Hi Evelyn , what style would you like for your pincushion. Let's pm addies. This current one of mine should work, the one with the flower avatar, locked out of other ones. Hello Ms. Barbara, do you have a pin cushion designed in your mind? I missed making these. I especially love those stick pins, and enjoy sticking em on my swap projects, just the right little touch to kick it up a notch. Just made a Bingo card and used one yesterday.

good evening everyone hope all is well big waves to my partner ksqueenb hope I got the spelling correct on your name I just sent you a PM =)
I'm not very picky so i will let you do whatever your creative mind takes you, I'm into earthtones but since this is for my craft room the colors doesn't really matter to me, I'm not really into the hole girly lace and tea cups I notice a post about tea cups between you and the host, if thats what you were thinking about doing, just go with it, I'm easy to please.
What type of pin cushion would like in return? I usally work with wood but I'm willing to work with glass as well can't wait to get started.
-Andrea

Hello Ladies ! Let Us Commence with the crafting and the chatter !! Big WAVES to my 2 partners.... I have some lovely tea cups and saucers to make gorgeous Pin Cushions, but I am willing to also create something especially for my partners ~ So please let me know what you are hoping for and I shall do my best to make you happy . KM - I always have a new container and a new Pin Cushion idea brewing in my head...problem with that is that it is not always what my partner might be hoping for...so I have to be flexible ! I just got some really AWESOME hand made beads in stock and I am also making some of my own that I am firing in my tiny little clay oven and then I am painting them in custom colors !! So - if you are a good little girl you just might find some in your Easter basket with the cards you are getting in the other swap !

I will let you take the creative reign on this one and go with whatever you'd like. But, I feel bad that you have to make two pincushions because of the odd number of swappers. I am very much willing and able to sit this one out and join the next one if that's better for you. No hard feelings at all if that's the way you prefer to go. If you still feel like making two, and you have a preference for what I make for you, please let me know. Otherwise, I have two ideas I'm kicking around and I'd love to see either one brought to life.

Hi Hodmom !! No problem...I will be glad to make you a pin cushion...if it's okay, I will use a teacup....I can do something spring timey for you if that's okay. I would like for you to make something that you will enjoy crafting and use your imagination....I always like to see what someone's creativity comes up with ! ...

If money were no object I would get a top of the line New Home sewing and embroidery machine...they are awesome ! Singer machines are not what they used to be...sadly. Now -if they could invent a machine that sews, embroiders, AND is a SERGER too (all in one) I would want one of those ! No use hinting for another pin cushion KM...I have my hands full already with cards to send you in a few days !

JCI. I have been in touch with my partner and I'm working toward finalizing my ideas. Dancingstarr, have you done a MQ yet? Sometimes that really helps with ideas. Edited by user Sunday, March 24, 2013 9:34:10 AM(UTC)

I will definitely be good barbara, if it means I may get some of those beads. Well, never hurts to hint for more pin cushions. . .
Ok , Evelyn , going to send my addie now to your pm. Do you want me to just surprise you, I have a couple of vessels picked out that are pretty cool.
