Hey, I'm on a roll...last night I finished the retreat smalls. The stitching was done before the retreat started, but I had the finishing left to do. When we first received the materials in the mail I wasn't so sure about the colors, but I really liked the design. Now that they are finished I love the colors. Crazy, huh?
Here they are - a pincushion, a needlebook and a fob...
The inside of the needlebook and backsides of the pincushion and fob. The fabric I used to line the needlebook and back the pincushion is from Blackbird Designs new Moda line of fabrics called "In the Meadow."
The backside of the needlebook:
I may pick up some more navy colored chenille (used on the pincushion) and use it to finish off the edges of the needlebook (it covers a lot of sins!)
Don't you think they turned out pretty cute?
