First September finish

I needed a pincushion to put on my new cutting table so rather than throw out this chipped coffee cup it has become the pincushion. I've finished a couple of things for swaps i'm in but can't show photo's of those yet.

how could you ever even think of throwing out a rachal hale original coffee cup even if it is chipped!!! I'm so glad you didn't, and that you've turned it into something as fabulous as this! I actually own the same cup! But mine is not going to get the chance to be chipped, and it's put safe and sound on a shelf in my bookcase! lol I must sound mad to you! lol

 At the start of March i had this pile of blocks. I couldn't get my head around how to turn all these differing block sizes into a quilt...
