A Crazy Quilted Heart Pincushion was a must, to add to my Playing with Pincushions series!

It was my Crazy Quilted Sewing Machine, that I added to my Bits & Bobs collage quilt, this week! 😍🥰🩷💙

🪡 I have a plan, for my 2025 free Block of the Month, to explore creating by hand, using what you have in your stash.
I hope you’ll plan to play with me in January! 👏🧵🥰

📍This is the center of my Sampler quilt (1998) - I keep track, and it took me 100 hours.
Worth every stitch!! 😍

I’m seeing the misconception, in recent comments, that stitching by hand is ‘hard work’.
It’s not hard, at all - it just takes time & patience and has the bonus effect of relaxing creativity!
Stitches needn’t be perfect or it’ll look machine made…and would loose the charm!
As with all things you practice, you get better with time.
