Oh, this is all so exciting! I'm off to take a photo of my pincushions. I just finished one tonight.
I'm so glad I found out about this pincushion parade. I really love pincushions, and have lots and lots of them. I like to make them, and to receive them through swaps. I'll come back to link up in a couple of days.
Yay! I shared your button on my blog- I don't have many followers so I am not sure how many people will see it...but I hope lots of people can join us. This will be fun. Can't wait to see all the pincushions!!

Thank you for hosting.
It's great to meet some "new to me" bloggers, and to see what wonderful pincushions they have created!I'm off to visit everyone now.

Just made it to the Parade! Thanks for hosting this fun link-up. I've linked up in my post and added you to my side bar. Now to go visiting everyone's blogs!
I'm not sure I can figure out how to do this, but I have some very unique (very old and dingy vintage ... should I say more ... ones.)
Then I just checked and it is the 15th here in Tokyo. I guess I am off the hook but it sure looks like everyone is having a lot of fun.
Keep the fun coming and one of these days I will get my act together.
Thanks so much for hosting this parade! It inspired me to make some pincushions plus it gave me the chance to see and be inspired by the ones others made. Win-win!
