It's an addiction

But thank goodness it's not illegal! LOL I'm talking about my pincushion addiction. Here's another one I finished off today. This is one of a set called Sarah's Pincushions from Leanne Beasley. I won this kit from Janet back in...wait for it...May of 2010. I had to look up the giveaway on her blog to find the date, and I honestly didn't think it was that long ago. Anyway, this is the first of five. I've already started stitching on the second one, so there will be more of these coming soon, I hope! :0)
