I like to start by thanking Mdm Samm and Kirsten of Meadowbrook , our cheerleader, for organising this new bloghop Pin it!, I had great fun making my pin cushion. It wasn't easy at all picking the one I wanted to make, with the great boards on Pinterest one finds so much inspiration. I made a tribute to our greatest cheerleaders at home, I don't mean our DH/DW, DSs or DDs, not even our dearest DM/DF or BFs, I mean our pets, I have a cat, but the same goes for dogs in all shapes and sizes. On blogs and on Facebook I see them everywhere, always cheering us on in their own way.
I chose the free pattern of Sue Daniel and I added the block Hawaii teal bedding of Quilters Cache to it.
I made a square cushion, the block is a bit bigger, so it covers the edges of the cushion, I can place my needles in the flat space, they won't get 'sucked' into the pincushion and vanish as they like to do.

Wat een snoezepoes van een speldenkussen heb je gemaakt, Pauline. Ik ben helemaal weg van de kattenstaart, wat een vondst, om een spoel op kwijt te kunnen. Groetjes! Jeanneke. Beantwoorden Verwijderen
That is prachtig Pauline! Zo ontzettend schattig! Ik was blij om te zien dat mijn kat (Loedertje) niet de enige is die in een quiltring slaapt! Alle quilts bestaan voor een deel uit kattenhaar.... Tenminste die van mij... Dank je wel voor je post. Geweldig! teal bedding Beantwoorden Verwijderen

sew true pets do love our quilts and anything teal bedding related. And they do not even have to be your own pets as I have found out. But it is okay if they sit or nap on my quilts I have even made some just for them as well. thanks for sharing in stitches Beantwoorden Verwijderen

Twister (the real cat) knows that she can't compete. The best way to get and hold your attention is to get involved. Quite a quilting kitty. Your tribute to Twister is awesome. I love it. Beantwoorden Verwijderen

So cute. I was glad to hear that someone else has a problem with needles getting lost in pincushions. Super solution. Beantwoorden Verwijderen
Ik ben gèk op lapjeskatten en schildpadkatten, dus daarmee had je me al plezier gedaan: wat een schitterend teal bedding poezenbeest heb je! En wat een handig handwerkhulpje (NOT!). Maar dan komt je speldenkussen........wauw, wat een ontzettend leuk speldenkussen zeg. Dat mag hele dagen open bloot op tafel/kast liggen, wat een beauty!

What a great tribute to a kitty kat! I adore the pin cushion. I bet if I made one, my two cats would have it down as a cat toy in no time - lol. You did a marvelous job and I love the Hawaii block that you chose to put under it. Thanks for giving the link to the pattern and directions teal bedding for the cat pincushion. I've alrady downloaded them. I use Quilters Cache from time to time - it is a fantastic site. Congratulations of a top 2 finish for the day - very well deserved. Thanks for participating and giving me great inspiration to make a cat pincushion. I hope to see you soon in more blog hops. Beantwoorden Verwijderen
I love the cat pincushion----it really has cat-titude don't you think?? Makes a good blog header too. There is just a natural teal bedding affinity for cats and fabrics. Mine would try to hide under a quilt block. They can be so silly! Beantwoorden Verwijderen
