Happy Pink Saturday!


I hope everyone is having a happy Pink Saturday! I wanted to show a pink needle case I made several years ago. I belong to an online silk ribbon group and they decided to do a needle case swap. I made this needle case and then sent it off. In return I received the most beautiful needle case! Every once in a while, I would mumble something to my best friend (who is also a crazy quilter) that I sure miss that pink needle case I made. I don't know why, but I have the hardest time giving the stuff I make away! For my birthday, she came to my little shop while I was gone and bought one of the kits and made one for me! I was certainly surprised, I would have never guessed she would do that. I carry it with me when I go to our quilting group at church. It holds everything I need, a thimble, needles and my scissors.

Remember to go to see Beverly's blog at www.howsweetthesound.typepad.com as she is our wonderful sponsor of Pink Saturday. To easily get to her blog you may click on the button on the top right that says Beverly's Pink Saturday and it will take you right to her blog. She will have a wonderful list of other Pink Saturday participants and they are the most wonderful group of people!

I would also like to thank all of the Pink Saturday ladies for the wonderful comments they left last Saturday. I started to go to all of their blogs and leave comments for them. Then I got confused as to who I had already left a comment for! Oh my, I was too embarrassed to leave a second one, so thank you to all of you! You are a wonderful group of ladies!

Talk to you later,

  9. Happy Pink Saturday, I'm trying to get in a few visits today and love that I'm your first comment! Your silk embroidery is wonderful and no wonder you missed that little case, how sweet that it was replaced! I just discovered the Flower Fairies Silk embroidery book and splurged, I hope to get at least 1 or 2 done in my lifetime as they look labor intensive and time consuming but a Pinky girl can dream! My Grand daughters love the Flower fairies so how can I resist, they will be eventually getting Flower fairy quilts to match! Pink of course! Beautiful Pink blog post I might add! XOXO
