And a Finish...

So, I finished the pincushion today.

Here's what it looked like before any finishing:




I trimmed it down and then sewed on the backing fabric.  Because of the pulled threads, I had to also sew fabric behind the cross stitch piece as well:


And this is what the back looks like:


I'm hoping to find some fancy pins to send along with this.  I managed to secure a journal today and am starting the journal cover.

  4. Very lovely! The teasing out the fabric's threads must have taken some time. Great job!
