Very pretty pincushion, is it stitched on rainbow sparkly aida? Not sure what the correct name is but have looked at it on ebay.

Thanks. :)

It's really pretty fabric to work with, though it's a bit loose and easy to slip between the blocks instead of into the holes. But honestly, I think it' well worth the hassle of a few slips. Hope you can find some at your LNS.

That is gorgeous Brandi and I love that fabric. I can see why you had to buy some.

Yes this is the same just using 2 colors this time. Looks so different adding the green. They are fun.
