Hedgehog Pincushions & A Giveaway!


I whipped up these adorable hedgehog pincushions the other day and guess what?




This cute little guy wants to come live with you! :)

Why? Because it's time for a 200 Follower Giveaway!

Okay so teeeechnically we reached 200 followers over a week ago. Well, more like three weeks ago when you include email subscriptions. I was having a really difficult time thinking of something fun to give away though so I kept putting it off. Then I remembered this project I saw almost a year ago and decided it would be perfect!

If you don't win the giveaway you can make your own following the tutorial and pattern here. They only took about 20 minutes each!

This would be a fun accessory if you are a sewer. Or it can just sit on your shelf and look cute. :)

Alright. There are only two rules for the giveaway:

RULES:

1. Must be a *public* follower through Google Friend Connect (since this is a giveaway to thank my followers I would like to be able to confirm that the winner is actually a follower) or an Email Subscriber.

2. Leave a comment on this post and you are entered in the giveaway! If you are an email subscriber, just send me an email reply to this post and let me know you want to be entered.

One entry per person. Giveaway ends Sunday at Midnight. On Monday I will randomly choose a winner and announce it at the link party!

Ha! These are so adorable. They made me smile. What a fabulous idea . . . the pins as the hedgehogs spikes! If I don't win the giveaway I'm definitely making one so I guess I win either way!

Cute! I would love a hedgehog for my craft room. :)

I'm a follower! This is the cutest pin cushion idea ever. We used to have a hedgie...I might have to make one of my own if I don't win! *fingerscrossed!*

Dana @ Cooking At Cafe D said...

First, CONGRATS on reaching 020 followers. (I've only 40 myself.)

Next, oh, how this little hedghog would be perfect! My new hubby (who I knew back in school 25 years ago...) used to have a little brown car we called, *wait for it*, The Hedgehog!

So, it would surely give us a giggle.
Since I don't sew that much, I would likely turn him into a Christmas ornament we could cherish forever :)

Again, congrats on 200!

This is a really cute hedgehog - and in this house we *know* hedgehogs! My youngest has loved them since she was one, and we have had an assortment of china, glass and cuddly ones over the last 15 years. Yours is second in cuteness only to her pet ... a REAL hedgehog (a vanilla tipped African Pygmy Hedgehog) called Twiglet. Can you tell how much yours would be loved here???

Haha how cute! I love the hedgehog, and after yesterday's spilling of the needles in my sewing container, I could really use it!

Unknown said...

These are tooooo CUTE! I would put them out for decorations because there is no way I could only use them as pin cushions
