It's time once again for the Perfectly Pleasing Pincushion Parade, hosted by My Sister Made Me Do It. Whether or not my pincushions qualify as "perfectly pleasing" is probably in the eye of the beholder...
I like them!
Complete details about the skull pincushion and the eyeball pincushion are in the original posts. The rest of my pincushions are in last year's Pincushion Parade post.
Halloween is coming and I dug around on Pinterest and found a bunch of other creepy little pincushions I'd like to make...
Spider Pincushion -- this one calls for a little scrap of doily to use as the web. I don't have doilies, but I've got yarn and knitting needles...
Phrenology Head Pin Cushion
Coffin Needle Case
Sugar Skulls -- actually sachets, but that's close enough to make me happy
Voodoo Doll Pincushion -- complete with button eyes and yarn hair.
OK, I think you've gone over the edge now. Fun, but weird.
ReplyDeleteBwahahahaha! I love your eyeball pincushion! Yes it is pleasing and love the eye of the beholder pun....... And thanks for the links to the others......I think the spider is pretty cute too.........don't forget to link-up!
ReplyDeleteOMG. Those are some very unique pincushions. I'm a big fan of dressing up for Halloween parties, but never thought about making pin cushions for the season. Thanks for the links.
ReplyDeleteWow! Well your pincushions certainly qualify as different. "Eye" actually like how the "eye" looks. Thanks for sharing with us.
ReplyDeleteGruesome! Especially that eye with the needle stuck in it! I have a friend who would love these - I might have to make her some skull sachets as a gift...
ReplyDeleteEeeek!!!!
ReplyDeleteGreat pincushions Michelle! Loved all the links! If I were to make one, it would have to be the eyeball!!!!
Squeeel!!!!!

P.S. Thank you for your visit to my blog, Michelle. I'm off to see if I have any blogworthy pincushions right now!
OMGoodness! That eyeball is hysterical. Nothing like having eyes on your stitching!!
ReplyDeleteOMG! These are definitely creepy pincushions. Halloween worthy!
ReplyDeleteLol! At least they weren't mind having pins stuck in them.
ReplyDeleteI like the eye. Do you remember, as a kid, saying "cross my heart and hope to die, stick a needle in my eye"? I haven't thought of that in years.
ReplyDeleteeeeeek! You got my attention!
ReplyDeleteOkay, they are different but interesting pincushions.
ReplyDeleteA fun couple of pincushions! I would enjoy poking both of these with pins!!
ReplyDeleteEach to their own - and if you love them that is what counts!!
ReplyDeleteYou've certainly got some interesting pin cushions, Michelle.
