The heart is now what I call a ‘stitching pillow’…..when I stitch I have found that a cushion placed next to me on the recliner works well…I have a small magnet that my scissors stick to…a few large hat pins which holds a small thread catcher…and also a bobbin filled with thread…and just a small assortment of needles/pins that I am using for that project….
So what do you think!!!!!!
Happy Tuesday, take care, keep safe

Oh my gosh Peg!!! What a fantastic idea! Your cushion truly is the answer to all the stitching bits and bobs we need as we relax and stitch. I'm thinking I need one of these ASAP! I'm so excited to get started on one. Oh, by the way, did you design your sewing machine cover or was it from a pattern that I can purchase? I've been meaning to ask for a while now but keep forgetting, and since I've been trying to get some things made just for decorating my sewing room, table toppers, mugrugs, ets, I realized I had better get hopping on that machine cover for 'my' Hazel. Also, don't you have a mat that your Hazel sits on with pockets in the front to put notions in? Is there a pattern for that too? .... It's amazing how nice and quilty and crafty I want my sewing room to look, now that I am sewing again and also in an oh so comfy room that is just for me, LOL. Big Hugs, Nancy Jo

Marilyn said...
