Love it, Susan! I also eyed your pretty gimp bobbins. They look to be
ceramic in the middle..(?) I haven't ever seen any like that before.
Where are they from? Also, noticed your pictures from the Flagler
Museum which I hadn't seen...very nice too. We must add that as a stop
next time we're in Florida! (-:
Vicki in Maryland where we had a typical spring day....cloudy, sunny,
rainy, sleeting, sunny, snow, followed by a lovely sunset...as we say,
if you don't like the weather, wait 10 minutes....(-:

Subject: [lace] Little Urchin
Hello All! The urchin pin cushion is finished & pics are posted to
webshots thanks to a friend. The core is felted basic roving covered
with hand dyed alpaca roving, then needled in. It was a fiddley finish
but I love the results! Looks cute on my pillow with partially worked
Mirecourt pattern, Art Deco Tile by Debby Beever. I must say, I can't
imagine installing the urchin over a stone as noted in the Purl Bee
website instructions unless one is double jointed!! FYI--I'm left
handed & the instructions didn't work for me because the pattern is
directional. Fudging ensued. My overall impression is that it's a
quick & easy little item to make for a guild event/program or for
gifts. Sincerely, Susan Hottle, Erie, PA
