Velvet Pumpkin Pincushion 2

This small pincushion is perfect for projects on the go or just for a sweet decoration.

Influenced by my love of my allotment and growing things it is made from a piece of hand dyed vintage cotton and a small old patisserie dariole tin.  It is stuffed with 100% pure british sheep wool and features a small hand dyed velvet pumpkin sat on a mossy base.

The little tin itself is highly patinated, it shows the signs of its age and these tell the story of it's useful past life....it may have a dint or two.  I think this is important and have intentionally left it in this condition rather than polishing it.  I imagine all the tasty treats that were once baked in it and the pleasure they must have brought.  It would once have been a valuble and cherished item in the kitchen.

The pincushion is approx 9cm tall by 5cm across (inc pumpkin).

All orders are sent 1st Class/Tracked/Special Delivery depending on total order value.

*shipping/postage fees....I am trying to perfect this part of the process to offer you the best deal but to also cover the cost of the order should items go astray in the postal system. Due to a substantial increase in shipping fees particularly to the United States as USPS have increased their prices I have unfortunately had to increase shipping fees as am unable to absorb these costs. Please don't hesitate to get in touch should you have any questions about this before buying, thank you
