Just looking at those fabrics on the sales site I would have passed over them, but seeing them in a project makes me want to go shopping! Great job on your pin cushion.

I just read the PDF file, and as usual, you are very clear with your directions. this is definitely on my list for tomorrow (the quilt along blocks will be done the day after) ;)

Brilliant!!! I think you must have been spying on me, though, because my sewing area is in DIRE need of this kind of organizer!

So (sew) funny! I have just been looking at my current version of this organiser and thinking how much I would like a pattern to make one in fabrics that better match my crafting space - et voila! Love your blog!

I love this! I made your Margaret Bag this Saturday and was doing some hand quilting and the whole time I was working on both I was thinking that I needed to make a better pincushion. I love the organizer idea also. I'll definitely be downloading this one right away!

Love that!! Last night while I was working on fmq my daughters quilt, I had to keep hunting for my tools, which kept getting knocked off of the table by the quilt. This is a great tutorial at a great time!

Hmm. This looks like something I could use! And those fabrics are so pretty - I like how subtle the colors are.
