winter pin tuffet

The theme for this month's pincushion challenge is winter wonderland. I stole this idea from a tree ornament I saw on another blog. I can't seem to find the original, though, so if you know, please leave a comment! Very easy: I crocheted a little snowflake and tacked it on top of a little tuffet (2 circles + strip of fabric sewn together). The v. light blue of the fabric really looks wintry to me. It's pretty teeny (maybe 2 inches in diameter).

It's gorgeous! I think the colours are very perfectly wintery as well ;)

Light blue and white always make me think of winter, too. The little snowflake tuffet is very cute.

Hey that's very pretty. I'd go buy it a bunch of pearly white pins if it was mine.

I think it might have been me at my old blog address. That's such a pretty pincushion.

How sweet! It's nice to think that it is only two inches wide; tiny things are so nice! : ) With what did you fill it?

also wondering about the filling. i need to make one and fill it with something somewhat heavy so my cat won't knock it on the floor constantly.

Soooo Cute. Very easy? I don't know about that. Some of us are crochet challenged.

I love this. It's beautiful and reminds me a the Kenneth Libbrect book that I love called "The Little Book of Snowflakes"
