A Trio of Seasonal Pin Cushions
Livia and Paola sent us their models of these charming little cushions... they are delightful. They've found a local artist in Italy who made her the cool, gigantic buttons to embellish the designs. Presented as charts WITH the stitching linen, front finishing fabric and the trim. Best of all - that beautiful hand-made ceramic mega-button is included too! All of them measure about 4 x 5... the colors are good, they really cover all 4 seasons!
  • The Tomato Cushion measures 52 x 85 and is done on 36ct hand-dyed. Coded for DMC, you get the red and white finishing fabrics and the featured jute trim. The ceramic tomato button measures a little over 2 x 2 inches in size. Very 'Summer-Gardeny.'
  • The Pumpkin Cushion includes the Weeks hand-dyed dark green linen, both the light and dark finishing fabric and more the of the cute trim. The hand-made pumpkin button on here measures a generous 2 x 2. Great colors in both this one, and the companion tomato piece. Vibrant Fall Colors.
  • Christmas Tree Cushion - Cut Your Own includes the natural hand-dyed 36ct linen, navy calico finishing fabric and the ceramic truck button that is about 1-1/2 x 3 inches in size. Classic deep red, green and winter white.

Oh wow, this is CHARMING! Stitch the mermaid swimming in her undersea world... she's among crabs, octopus and coral. The complete kit for this darling cushion-in-a-tray includes so much cool stuff!

You get the chart, hand-dyed 32ct linen, blue and white stripe finishing fabric, wood button, jute rope, the charm, AND the gorgeous 6-inch wooden tray WITH stilletto and seam ripper! All hand-made in Italy, it has been one of my most favorite things we have carried in the shop. The design is charming, and the tray with tools is stunning!
