I love your pin cushion! Hope you're happy, 'cuz now I have to make one! :) Probably should make a scissors fob too. LOL

I would have suggested for regular stuffing, cotton balls, but find myself really liking the laddered tights(pantyhose?) idea.

My mother has suggested old cut up t-shirts. I have told her to stay away from my concert shirts!

yes, tights=pantyhose. Don't you just love it how we share the same language :-)? I'm reading a book set in the 20s at the moment and the British character visiting America for the first time is getting VERY confused!

Great progress on the flower, you'll have a pin cushion before you know it!
