Crafty Book Review: Pretty Little Pincushions
Crafty Book Review: Pretty Little Pincushions by Lark Books
One of the things I enjoyed most about this book is that it randomly
includes pictures from pincushions from the past. They allow you to see how far we have come
and are so neat to look at. Tips boxes
scattered around the book are also awesome; they make important info readily accessible. This book also has a fair amount of subheading
and titles, which allow you to skip over areas you master and move on to
information that you want.
Now the fun part, which of these pincushion creations did I enjoy the
most? Well, it was hard to choose, but a
couple of my favorites where the “cute+curious” mouse, the “timeless treasures”
rounds, and the “ladybug bottle cap pincushion” (all pictured). I love the mouse for the simple cuteness, but
the timeless treasure round, adds basic embroidery stitches to an otherwise bland
pincushion to make it grand! I just awe at the ingenuity of the bottle cap
pincushions. If you stick around this
blog long enough you will find that I am pro recycling / reusing. To take something like a bottle cap or a
medicine bottle and make something, gives any book extra points.
The only thing stopping me from buying this book is the fact
that I don’t need that many pincushions, lol.
Nevertheless, there are projects here for everyone; beginner,
intermediate and expert crafters. There
are also pincushion ideas which the young crafter in your life would enjoy as
much as you! Mommy & daughter craft
night? I think so!
