Sprockets anyone??

Do you ladies ever read Cluck Cluck Sew? I do, all the time. I found her lovely blog in the spring when I was looking for an easy skirt pattern. I never ended up making the skirt, but I continued to read her blog. Even if you don't read her blog you might have seen the awesome Sprocket Pillow. She also has a great little tutorial for a sprocket pin cushion :) So, I  made one.


I really kind of love it. The only thing I did differently was that I put a piece of warm and white under the pieced part. And then I stuffed a little bit around the edges and then added some rice and then finished stuffing it. It was a pretty quick project, took me like 2 hours but I was farting around and then had to make some calls for work so it wouldn't take that long for someone who could actually stick to one task and just get it done. It's kind of big though. It measures about 5 inches across. I guess it will hold a lot of pins :)
I just remembered it's Friday! I'm going to link up to Crazy Mom Quilts Finish it up Friday! Yippee! Have a great weekend everyone!
