Getting Skinny With My Pinnie

WOW! What fun I've been having with our Skinny Pinnie Pincushion Swap!
I've joined 52 of my skinniest friends, and we are all making our partners a new Skinny Pinnie pincushion.
Here's what I made!

My skinny partner, Stephanie, lives in Pennsylvania.

{Me, too!}

She told me she likes ric rac and selvages.
{Me, too!}

She loves Bonnie and Camille fabrics...
{Me, too!}

The fun part is that I didn't even know that she is such a fan of Bonnie and Camille until after I'd sent her new skinny pinnie to her!

I love using some linen along with dreamy fabrics like this.
It's a little design detail I picked up
from the Zakka Style Sew Along.

I had sew much fun making this pincushion! I left the ric rac unstitched on the front,
just anchored in the seam, for holding a small pair of scissors.

For the little selvage insert, I adorned the top unfinished edge with a wee bit more of the same ric rac.

In my last pincushion post, I shared that I love to use Pellon ShapeFlex 101SF interfacing to keep my pincushions from distorting during the stuffing process.
{It gives the pinnies great shaping...skinny or not!}

Come back soon, and I'll show you what my partner made for me!
