This was a Sunday of firsts! The first time I used transparent poly thread, the first time I made hexagons and the first time I made prairie points! Very excited about all three, I’ve been anxiously plowing through my Prairie Flower Pincushion pattern and kit I got on my trip to Olde City Quilts, and by the looks of my stitches, I’ve probably been moving a little too quickly.
The kit came with two charm packs of Moda’s Verna, 1” hexagon templates, batting and the printed pattern. After pawing over a couple of the samples in the shop and enjoying the summery colors of Verna, I decided that maybe I really did need another pincushion. (And, my 93-year-old Pop has a girlfriend named Verna, so I figured it was more the coincidence!)
At this point in the evening, I’m a little too tired to finish, but stay tuned…do you think I’ll have a new pincushion tomorrow??
