permalink UPDATE 9/17/2010: Some people are having a difficult time downloading the pattern from the BHG site, so I've downloaded it from the link above and placed it here <-- click on this link to download the PDF. Now I love that pattern! Here are some of my favorite pictures of that pin cushion from this HenHouse blog post (visit if you want to see the full size images on her blog). Above: Take a close look at the spools of thread behind the pin cushion and see how HUGE that thing is! Below: This top-down view is even better... here is another picture from the HenHouse blog . That 8x10 printout of the pattern instructions under the pin cushion it's 8-inches wide! (And the fabrics are fabulous too!)

Re: [Free] Wild Flower Pincushion by Anna Maria Horner permalink I received the pattern for the pincushion caddy from my friend Terri at Terri's Notebook and have yet to make that one. This one is really sweet too! Anna Marie Horner makes the cutest things!

Re: [Free] Wild Flower Pincushion by Anna Maria Horner permalink Is that the one with the open middle for notions? That's a cute one too. -Adrianne www.littlebluebell.com

Re: [Free] Wild Flower Pincushion by Anna Maria Horner permalink Yes that's the one. Looking forward to starting that one as soon as I get done with this twin quilt!! Can you go look at my quilt on my blog and see what color binding you think I should do? I would be very thankful. It's the multi colored one with a tessellation block theme. I also have pics of it basted. The borders background color is a sapphire blue.

Re: [Free] Wild Flower Pincushion by Anna Maria Horner permalink These pincushions look so cute and pretty. It makes more fun to use pretty items like this than the regular ones, don't you agree? I think I want to use this pattern too to make my own flower. I can imagine that these flower gifts uk would be also good birthday presents for other sewing enthusiasts like me! I could make a bunch of them for me and my friends.
