I just had a lovely lunch with Elizabeth, Pam, and Monica. Goodness, oh how I love my job on days like today…when I get to sit and chat about fabric, books and sewing with some amazingly talented people. And Elizabeth was so sweet to bring us a gift made with her new fabrics from P&B textiles called Red Rose Farm!
This adorable pincushion!
Aren’t her fabrics beautiful?! This is especially exciting as I recently received a pincushion upgrade from my husband (I was still using the 1970s brown square pin cushion that I made in Home Ec class in the 80s) after he saw me looking at it on Etsy from this wonderful artisan. So I have two new pincushions!
I am especially thrilled with Elizabeth’s as I am ashamed to admit that I have picked up the pincushion mug of coffee thinking it was my actual coffee! Yes, you are reading the work of a true genius here. To be fair, we do have mugs from the PB basics line that look exactly like them…really.
Thanks, ladies, for a lovely chat in the middle of a beautiful day!
I had such a great time! I really believe that creativity and friends go quite well with melted cheese.
I just wandered over from PKM’s. Sounds like a wonderful afternoon and I can see something fun in the future for all of us sewers and crafters!
If you’ve picked up your pincushion mug and thought it was actual coffee… be careful not to put your feet or sit on E’s [adorable] pincushion. But think of the good stories I’d be able to repeat if you did!
Today was a blast. A BLAST! Repeat next Wednesday? xoxom
