Needle Felted Pin Cushion Baskets



For some time now I have been making small baskets to use for making needle felted pin cushions. I really enjoy being able to combine my favorite crafts all in one. This one is the Burgandy Rose that is in the background picture here on my blog. The basket is natural & burgandy round reed woven in triple weave. The pincushion is gold merino wool with burgandy merino wool for the rose. Each of the 12 petals were needle felted seperately & then needle felted in place to form the flower. If you are interested in more information or purchasing one of my pin cushion baskets, please email me.

I will be posting pictures of my Needle Felted projects here as time goes on & welcome your comments, questions, etc.
