Look what the postie just brought! Rachael RAK'd me with the most darling ladybug pincushion ever! Isn't this sweet? This is stitched on white plainweave with a pretty red fabric for the back. Not sure how well it shows but it is tufted in the center. This is too cute! I love ladybugs; I think they call them ladybirds in the UK...I understand Rachael stitched this on her recent holiday to Menorca. From the postcard she included it looks like a lovely area to vacation in.
Thank you, sweet Rachael...I love this!!!
Isn't that just the sweetest thing!
ReplyDeleteWhat a sweet gift!

Glad you liked it!!
ReplyDeleteLove the finish on this one! (I used to have a boss that was afraid of ladybugs - if the guys wanted to make her jump they'd tell her a ladybug was on her shoulder) :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely gift!
ReplyDeleteWhat a gorgeous gift!
ReplyDeleteHiya Sharon. I saw it on Rachael's blog too. I think it is lovely! It is very whimsical, too!! =) I love-love-love ladybugs also! Enjoy your gift! Rachael is definitely a keeper-friend. =)

what a beautiful gift!
ReplyDeleteyup, they're ladybirds (which is a prettier name, I think, but ladybug does make more sense...)
ReplyDeleteIt's a lovely gift, enjoy it
Rachael gift is indeed pretty. Loved the lady bird. Can't wait for you to finish JOY..I loved that design too.
ReplyDeleteSuch a beautiful gift, i too have been lucky enough to be RAK'd by Rachael recently. Enojy your gift.
ReplyDeleteThat's very cute. I'm kind of tired of biscornus so I'm glad to see a more traditional finish.
ReplyDeleteI get lots of ladybugs in my apartment at certain times of the year and frankly, I'd prefer to see them on pincushions only, not in real life!
What a lovely gift
ReplyDeleteI love little pillows and this one is so sweet.
ReplyDeleteLovely gift from a thoughtful friend.
