Pincusions are Back at Etsy!


Today I reopened my second etsy shop.  This shop will focus on wool felted accessories, pincushions, and lavender sachets.  I initially designed these pincushions because my aunt gave me 10 boxes of wool strips.  I thought for several months about what I could do with these strips.  One day I was working on a quilt with concentric circles and I had an "aha" moment.  I could wrap the strips and then felt them to make pincushions.  What I love about these pincushions is that they are dense and stay put on your sewing table.  In addition, the lanolin in the wool lubricates your pins and the wool fibers sharpens the pins.  Come by my etsy shop:  http:www.gutentagfibers.etsy.com.
