I hear Barbara Streisand singing...
Memories light the corner of my mind
Misty water color memories
Of the way we were...
Yes, the way we were. What happened to those days????? You blink, and your a victim of the horrible joke that life plays on us all! LOL!!
One day we are sporting the baby oil and taking in the rays...
Then next, things have moved downward (they tell me it's gravity or some fool thing) and a bottle of SPF 50, so you don't sunburn. Ohhhhhhh, it's a lovely sight isn't it? :-)
I just couldn't help myself, but use Amy Bradley's "All about me" one more time for this hop. My evil quiltin sista, came up with the idea of a pom pom bikini, although now she completely denies it!! Hummm... have I finally managed to horrify her too? LOL!!
My reversible pillow tells it all. The sad story of my life!!
From the golden tan era to the cottage cheese thighs!
I love pin cushions...so the wheels started turning. I started with a wooden craft box from any hobby store. While I was working on the zillion pom poms it took to cover it, the memory of those tissue paper flowers, started dancing in my head. Those of us who grew up in the 60's and 70's remember em. They were great big ones on sticks. Hummm... the pom pom would make a fabulous center to a flower, now wouldn't it.
My really big pin cushion, has it's very own big pom pom flower. Since it's about 8" square and 18" tall, I shouldn't manage to loose it in my sewing room. Won't that be a nice change, for once.
:-)
Let's have a give a way that reminds me of the spring, that hasn't managed to happen here yet!
Now this fun quilt, sure make me think of spring. If only Mother Nature would cooperate!

It just wouldn't be the same without pom poms!
LOL!
Do you suppose this is what Clover had in mind,
when they made the pom pom maker?
While I was on a pom pom kick, I decided to play with a little something else.

I LOVE your reversible pillow. Just laying it all right out :) And the pin cushion is monumental. You surely will not lose it! Wonderful projects. Spring is slowly making itself known here. Spring does not really come here until May and we have a week or so to go. Thanks for the giveaway.
ReplyDeleteLove it. You never fail to come up with something original!
ReplyDeleteYour pillow and pincushion are my favourites!
ReplyDeleteSpring is doing its best to enter our country, the netherlands, but it has a hard time doing so. Temperatures are going up and down, like shaking pom poms :>)
Cheers!
Jeanneke.
What a novel pillow, and the bikinis are a hoot! I am differently on the flip side, LOL! Thank you for sharing.
ReplyDeleteYou certainly made me smile today! Spring arrived very slowly but I think we can call it almost spring weather here! At least I decided so and planted a whole lot of flowers in my balcony... And when the tulips are out it is definitely spring!
ReplyDeleteHoly smokes! This is to funny!!!! Love it!!! I bet you have a great personality :)
ReplyDeleteOK - there should have been a warning 'read while not drinking' just spewed my coffee with this one! I remember those days and can relate to the reverse side of that pillow - oh too funny!! And yes, the large paper flowers, too - you dear. Summer has alluded us her in the NorEast - the trees won't even bud outlet alone any flowers. And still cold!!
ReplyDeleteThis is fantastic, what a way to start the day! Not only a fun cushion, but a gorgeous pin cushion too
ReplyDeleteYour Pom Pom bikini project made me laugh. That is the cutest little pillow. The flower is just perfect. I could use one of those. And no Spring has not sprung here, we had snow again over the last couple days and all my spring flowers froze. Oh, well!
ReplyDeleteThats a funny way to use the pompoms.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea
Frederika
Last weekend Spring decided to show up and start the party in the garden, leaf buds are unfurling the first flowers are smiling up at the sun and birds are nesting like crazy. The pillow struck a chord, all too true ans so funny.
ReplyDeleteYou have made my day. I am still laughing when thinking of your pillow. You are surely a lady with humor
ReplyDeleteAnd the spring has sprung even here in Sweden with lot of spring flowers and the birds are wild of joy and are busy nesting.
Thanks for sharing and a for a great give away
Well, now that is an original idea...uh hum. Nice pincushion. :)
ReplyDeleteI love your ladies in their pom pom bikinis!!! sadly I know exactly what you mean!!
ReplyDeleteSpring hasn't arrived here yet either - she teases us with a sunny day then the next it's bitterly cold again!
Thank you for sharing!
Your Ladies in their bikinis are awesome, what a view! Great pincushion....enjoy your fun filled day. I hope spring gets there soon...
ReplyDeleteYou just gave me my first laugh of the day...those ladies? OH MY!! I will never look at pom poms the same. Spring has come and gone a couple of times here in NC. I keep hoping it will come to stay soon. Tired of the chill!
ReplyDeleteROFLOL...LOVE your bikini Ladies Pompoms !!!!!
ReplyDeleteI am happy to say Spring has finally arrived here...now i am going outside to enjoy it !
If I had've been drinking my water, I think i would have blew it up my nose as I laughed out loud when I saw that awesome pillow! You have a wonderful sense of humor! I bet this one is one of the top 2 for the day! :)
ReplyDeleteAnd that pincushion is fantastic!!
Thanks for taking the time to discuss this, I feel strongly about it and love learning more on this topic. If possible, as you gain expertise, would you mind updating your blog with more information? It is extremely helpful for me Furniture Store
ReplyDeleteYOU MADE ME SPILL MY COFFEE!! I am still laughing and am going to send those pics to my 3 daughters so they know what to expect in years to come. That is the funniest (and most psycho) thing I've seen in a long time. Now I feel a little better about my own pom project that took on a life of its own and is downright crazy. But, hey, I'm in good company, right? Loved your pillows and I KNOW you will be on Madame Samm's hit list today for most creative.
ReplyDeleteWell, aren't you the creative soul! I never imagined Pom poms as such an essential clothing item...giggle...you rock! Awesome pin cushion too! Spring has barely sprung...today we are getting rain instead of snow, so it must be Spring, right?
ReplyDeleteOk, I don't even know what to say ....OWWW....and like Debby above I did spill my coffee from laughing so much I cried...I cried, because leave it to you and your evil twin ...lol to come up with this idea...the only thing I regret is why I did not think of it...now I would not have made it ....but did not even think of it...you just kill me lol oh did you make something else....lol Oh did you have a question lol....Joan, I am so pleased to share my world with you and vice versa...
ReplyDeleteVery creative way to use the pom-poms! Still laughing!!!
ReplyDeleteOh dear..... I'm wondering when your evil twin was in my house spying on me and planning on exposing ME to the world! I can sooooo relate to this post in every cottage cheesy way! Thanks for the smiles today!
ReplyDeleteOh lord, this is just way too funny.Yes, spring has sprung and I have the severe allergies to prove it!
ReplyDeleteThose ladies are to funny. Not sure what you will do with them but they are pretty cute. Thanks for having a give away.
ReplyDeleteDefinitely worthy of "most creative" lol! So, so good!
ReplyDeleteOMG!!! I love that pillow! I can totally relate to it. And your pincushion is fantastic. You are one creative lady. Thank you for sharing.
ReplyDeleteYou made my day! Smiles and more smiles! I can relate! Thank you for the fun!
ReplyDeleteIt`s spring here in the high desert. We are near Grand Canyon, the west end. Not many wildflowers this year except in my yard. Looks like 80 or more by the end of the week. Thank you again for a splendid visit.
Now everytime I hear that song visions of your bikini will be running through my mind. :)
ReplyDeleteOh, my, gosh, I am laughing hysterically here. You totally created ME! I love it and am so glad to have some humor with my morning tea. I will be passing your link to some non blogger friends for them to have a laugh, too. Cute pin cushion, though it's totally overshadowed by your wonderful pillow. LOL
ReplyDeleteHee Hee!!!! You cracked me up!!!! Love the lady!!!! Too funny!!! Sadly true!!! I am almost getting there!!!! Love the pincushion too!!! Thanks for the fun!!!!
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness! I don't know how anybody is going to top your project. Congrats on being Mdm. Samm's creative pick of the day, it is truly well deserved!!
ReplyDeleteAhhhh....bwahahahahahahaha...this leaves me speechless...not easy to do, but you have come up with a very fun project...may I ask where you plan to display these?
ReplyDeleteHA HA ! That same woman is in my bathroom mirror ! Ha Ha !
ReplyDeleteoh, that pin cushion is sew cute. I love love love it. No spring hasn't come to ND as of yet we still have snow. Can't seem to make it above 40 degrees. As of Sunday this is our longest winter on record in the state. Yuck! would love to be entered in your giveaway. thanks
ReplyDeleteABreading4fun [at] gmail [dot] com
I don't know if Sping has sprung, but the oldest pecan tree in the area does have buds! Your pillow is a graphic reminder of aging and your pin cushion is just too too cute!
ReplyDeleteNo Spring here in Iowa. The sun is shining this morning but the heat just kicked on in the house. The weather man just said we could be in the 60's this weekend. :) Thanks for the cute giveaway.
ReplyDeleteOMG! Hilarious! I love, LOVE your design. Here in TX Spring is very confused! It is 80 one day, then 40 the next. My arthritis is ouch!!!
ReplyDeleteYou were my first stop on this hop, if the rest would be half as entertaining it will be a spectacular event. Your pillow is absolutely priceless. the memories that have come to the fore are amazing. paper flowers, from any paper u could pleat including toilet. What a wonderful way to start my day. Oh, love the pin cushion too.
ReplyDeleteYour pillows are too funny!!! Thanks for the morning smile :-D
ReplyDeleteOh, ho w I can relate! This is such a fun pillow. Spring is always beautiful here in AZ, before the heat sets in.
ReplyDeleteThat is the cutest use of pom poms!!!! I LOVE it. The little flower is sweet too.
ReplyDeleteYour pompom bikini is just hilarious! And unfortunately so true! And what a cute pincushion--nice to have one so pretty that you can't lose!
ReplyDeleteLove those bikinis!! Your pincushion is super cute!!
ReplyDeleteThose are priceless. Such an amusing use of the pom poms. Thank you for brightening my morning. (headed for finals next week and taking a 5 minute break from a presentation due this afternoon)
ReplyDeleteHilarious!!! I will never be able to hear that song or see of pom pom without smiling now!
ReplyDeleteYour pin cushion is also wonderful!!!
Rosemary B here:
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh. so true. Aging is a cruel cruel joke. Why isn't there a pill to prevent that?
I adore the pin cushion. I want one now! My kitty boys would steal it though.
thank you for making me laugh... and covet the pin cushion
Oh I would give you most creative today right now! Those pom pom bikinis are a riot, LOL. Gravity is not kind to that "all about me" chesty woman. You will have Amy smiling at this one.
ReplyDeleteAnd if that were not enough, look at the pin cushion!! THX for the smiles.
love your ladies..... and how true..... but it looks like you are have a blast as you do....
ReplyDelete;) thanks sew much for sharing today. and giving us all a giggle
in stitches

ReplyDeleteLOL I had so much fun with this post. I love your pom pom ladies....good job
ReplyDeletethank you for the giveaway
I love your ladies, they are such fun.Spring has finally sprung here thank goodness and I'm no longer hiding under tons of layers.
ReplyDeleteHa, ah, ha, ha, ha, ha!!!!! OMG you are so darn funny! I love that the pillow is reversible too.
ReplyDeleteSpring here in NM is all over the place. It was 80 a couple days ago and will be again by the weekend, but this morning it's freezing outside. It's our windy season and the wind is so cold. The winds have been stronger this year than the past several years.
I could pose for your older lady. Love this pillow. And your pincushion...LOVE it. No spring here in Kansas yet. It is suppose to happen this weekend. Fingers crossed.
ReplyDeleteYou have certainly made my day! I saw your most creative at stash manicure and laughed and laughed. Then I found out who made that and your pillow is reversible! It is the greatest! The pincushion is cute too and mine do seem to disappear quickly when they are hiding among all the stuff I need next to my sewing machine. Thanks for a fun start for the day. Hope yours is wonderful.
ReplyDeleteYour Pom Pom Pillow is hilarious...and hits a little too close to home!! haha...At least we can laugh about 'it'!! Thanks for the chuckle...ok, ok...it was a belly laugh! Yes, Spring has sprung...all the trees are flowering and the tulips are a riot of colour!! I'm loving it!!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the chance to win this lovely pattern!
Paulette
OMG!!!! You are hilarious!! I love the transition from tanned and perky to pastie and droopy,
ReplyDeletebhahahaha! What a sweet pincushion, it looks fabulous!
Thank you for the chance and for sharing your incredible talents :)
LOL. You certainly made me and my DH laugh this morning! Thank you for your humorous pillow--so funny! Great job on the pincushion, also. You made my day!
ReplyDeleteI had a good laugh when I saw your cushion. Great job. Our weather has been up and down and today they are forecasting a lot of rain turning to SNOW overnight.
ReplyDelete" ... so it's the laughter we will remember ... whenever we remember ... the way we were ... " ... Thank you for the laughter today! ... Your work is sew very well done ... :-) Pat
ReplyDeleteHow creative!! You win today for sure. What a wonderful way to start my day - yes, we remember....
ReplyDeleteYour trip down memory lane is a hoot! LOVE the pillow!
ReplyDeleteYou are hilarious!! I love reading your blog. Spring has not sprung here in southcentral Kansas, we woke to a dusting of snow this morning.
ReplyDeleteBuwhahahahahahahah!!!!!! 'Nuf said! :)
ReplyDeleteI completely appreciate the pillow. I was having that exact conversation with DH yesterday as I was feeling all my joints hurting. Yes, Spring has sprung and is about to leave us. I was watching the dogwood petals drifting in the wind this morning and thinking that it's raining dogwood blossoms. (Love the ducky book.)
ReplyDeleteYour pin cushion is adorable. It is so neat and well, you did a perfect job. Just love it. The ladies.....LOL. I enjoyed seeing them, they surly made my day. I love them!!! They definitely get first place in my book. So creative, I thank you for sharing with us all and putting a smile on everyone face this dreary Wednesday.
ReplyDeleteSpring has sprung and unsprung here in Texas:) Meaning it is warm and beautiful for a few days and then a cold front come through:( Poor plants and birds are all confused.... as are we:)
ReplyDeleteI just had to LOL with the pillow!!!! LOVE it!!!!!! You just made my day:)
Thank you!
Oh my! How cute are your gals! Great idea. The pin cushion is fabulous. Spring had sprung in central Georgia for sure. The pollen is everywhere! Thanks for the giveaway offering.
ReplyDeleteOh I am laughing OUT LOUD for 10 minutes, at the cuteness and cleverness of your pillow and the pompoms!!! You are so creative and fun!!
ReplyDeleteIt is spring in PA , outside of Philadelphia. Blossoms and leaves are out now.

OUTSTANDING!!!! you have found your million buck (ok maybe a few thousand) - trademark it and sell it because I so need a few of those as gifts! Great job really really fun.
ReplyDelete:) your pom pom bathing suits are sew cute but I really love the pin cushion the best. As for our spring? Here in Texas it is here one day and gone the next. Air Conditioning on half the day and heat the rest. I can't even say morning or evening, yesterday the AC came on about 9pm but we knew to have our blankets/quilts ready for the wee hours of the morning.
ReplyDeleteI absolutely love it! What a fabulous reversible pillow :)
ReplyDeleteYou just have to win the pom pom prize for unique and clever and hilarious with your bikini adorned pillows. Your pincushion is very cute too. Thank you for sharing. Happy Hearts are Creative Hearts...
ReplyDeleteI am glad Madame Sam added your pillow - it totally made my morning! You are so creative and I agree with Creatology - you need to win the prize for most creative! The pincushion is so much fun as well!
ReplyDeleteCan't help but smile at your creations. Love the ladies and the effects of age and gravity. your pin cushion is so dang cute..... I want one!
ReplyDeleteLol that was too funny! I especially love the cottage cheese remark! Yes spring is here in sunny California and I think we're in for a record heat this summer! Thanks for the smile this morning :)
ReplyDeleteLove your pom pons! (I would have needed more than 3 to cover my fat self, lol!)
ReplyDeleteYou certainly made me laught today. Great pillow.
ReplyDeleteYes spring is here. But I had to SPRING to your site immediately because I knew it was your work--most creative. By far more creative than anyone would have thought. And of course you are shaking your pom poms!
ReplyDeleteOMG! I love your reversible pillow-so creative. Those tissue paper flowers-are they the same as the kleenex flowers we made of pastel colored kleenex as it was all the rage! Colored kleenex, now you can't purchase anything but white. Tissue paper is thinner and more translucent. I remember when "tennis shoes" came out and they were nothing but white, too! My sister loves ducks so that would be a perfect gift for her! From CA, thanks for sharing and jogging the memories!
ReplyDeleteRosemary
No spring has not really sprug here yet but I keep praying it will soon. I just had to laugh at your pillow, what a great idea. I love the pincushion alot. Thank you for the give away!!
ReplyDeletesmjohns63 at yahoo dot com
Oh my goodness your pillow is hysterical! I love it! And your pin cushion is pretty cute too! Thanks for the laugh today! My husband thought your project was great too!
ReplyDeleteThat pillow has made my day, AWESOME! Yes spring has sprung where I live... South Alabama! It's about 80degrees today!
ReplyDeleteOhhh my that is just too cute. The pin cushion is great too. Here in Texas spring has sprung and will be over very shortly!!!!
ReplyDeleteOMG! The bikini lady is absolutely hilarious! Fabulous idea. You brought laughter to many, many ladies today. Such a fun, fun project. I also love your pin cushion. If you lose this one amongst your fabric, then you'll know it's time to straighten up. ; ) Thanks for sharing your very creative projects with us.
ReplyDeleteI'm afraid we have had spring long enough for Apple trees to bloom followed by cold wintry weather and back to spring again. Hope it's here to stay this time here in southwest Missouri. Thanks for the chance to win.
ReplyDeleteOh my! I love what you've done with those pom poms! I'm not talking about that pincushion though I love it too. It's given me an idea for another pincushion. I don't need one but I enjoy making them. Here is Southern Cal our winter is much like spring in most parts of the country. We are moving out of the rainy season and lots of warm sunny days. We do have many mornings where the marine layer is thick so it stays overcast. We call it May Gray and June Gloom but it goes away quicker the farther you get from the coast. I'm hoping the rest of the country gets to enjoy some spring before summer arrives!
ReplyDeleteWell, definitely creative!
ReplyDeleteSpring has Sprung. Thanks for the laughs with your pom poms. I agree it is a dirty trick to play on us. I'm still trying to figure out when it happened....giggle. I know I was just 19!!!!............now 66 and twice my size :( :( :)...it's all good.
ReplyDeleteWhat phenominal pom pom porn..oops I ment projects....lol....great job. You brought a smile and a luagh to me Thank you it is much needed after the past few days. my pom pom porn...oops parts are becoming the victim of time & gravity also. oh well at least we can quilt about it...Why hide it ...giggle...wiggle & quilt. its all clean fun in the end.
ReplyDeleteI absolutely love your pom pom bikini pillow. Might just steal your idea for my own pillow.
ReplyDeleteAs for Spring well.... every time it starts to show itself we get another cold snap here in SLC Utah.

Gargalhadas a bordo!!!!Adorei!!Se você não existisse teria que ser inventada...Goste de tudo parabéns!!!
ReplyDeleteOMG!!! You made my day!! This is hilarious... I'll be giggling all night thinking about your reversible pillow!! Good one! hahahaha
ReplyDeleteWhat a hoot you are and if only we could truly revert to our younger selves quickly lik eyour time capsule pillow, Thanks for the chuckle. Jane
ReplyDeleteI just took a mouth full of ice tea as I was scrolling down your post. Needless to say I ended up laughing so hard the tea was snorting out my nose. LOL. FABULOUS!!!!!♥
ReplyDeleteI laugh soo hard, I thought I would fall on the floor, if that last one did not look like me, I don't know what to say. Girl this has got to be the the must fun pom pom show I have ever seen. Spring is lifting it head, but the chill is still in the air.
ReplyDeleteWhat a creative use of pom pons ;) LOL
ReplyDeleteI won't tell you which bikini babe I resemble...ahem...
ReplyDeleteWhatever they are giving away, you win!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the chuckle , they are just too cute , you have a great imagination to come up with that . Well done ! Spring is trying hard to show its face but it is still cold here and there is still ice in the harbour l
ReplyDeleteI had a little chuckle when I saw your projects. Such a clever idea! I love your flower pin cushion. It's so bright and cheery. I live in Australia and we are in mid Autumn (Fall).
ReplyDeleteWho would have thought!! You are outside the usual Pompom box girlfriend!! Spice on a "trying to be Spring" day! Thanks
ReplyDeleteI laughed and laughed...you made my day. :) blessings, marlene
ReplyDeleteSpring sprang and then it snowed. We're on our 3rd cycle of warm and cold, this morning it was 30, Sunday it was 54 in the AM. But this is very normal, we're all hoping the fruit blossoms will survive. Last year we had peaches and pears but no apples. So far it looks like we may even have cherries. But I got my long pants and turtlenecks out again cause I am cold. Loved your pillows. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteYou made me laugh out loud and sit here by myself. Love the bikini!! So true..We don't really have spring here in Az. It just goes from winter to summer overnight. I miss all the flowers. Thank you for sharing..
ReplyDeleteToo funny. Congrats on being one of the chosen.
ReplyDeleteSpring is here although we had a couple cool days. Just hope my tomatoes and peppers survive. Flowers are quite lovely right now. Thanks for the chance to win.
Since we had snow again last night I would have to say spring has not sprung in Michigan.
ReplyDeleteSpring has sprung. Thanks for the giveaway!
ReplyDeleteLove your pillows and spring is here in ga.
ReplyDeleteThis has to be the cutest pillow I have ever seen, thanks for making me giggle and giggle!!
ReplyDeleteIt is the end of my day and your projects have really tickled me! I have a huge smile on my face and I am thinking your projects made you smile the whole time you worked on them. I remember those paper flower making parties in high school. Each class had to build a float (Lord, I cannot remember why, maybe spirit week). One year I hosted one of those flower making parties at my house. Lots of fun memories.
ReplyDeleteSpring has come (and gone) in Phoenix. It is getting hot.
OMG-I cannot type I am laughing so hard!
ReplyDeleteLOVE LOVE LOVE your pillow - hard to type when my eyes are watering from laughing so hard!! Hubs thinks I've lost it!! Your pin cushion is fabulous! Spring has spring here in eastern Washington...I went for my first horseback ride of the season today!!!
ReplyDeleteOh my, that's hilarious! Love it!
ReplyDeletespring has sprung indeed !! love the ducky quilt, I have a granddaughter due to be born May 16th, her big sister loves duckies...I could make a new quilt for each of them :)
ReplyDeleteThe little flowers are blooming but it is cold still! I love your ladies it gave me such a laugh, that is so me too! Part of life I suppose. I make lots of baby quilts so I can always use cute patterns and this one is really cute!
ReplyDeleteI could hear Babs singing as I was reading ... memories of the way we were
ReplyDeleteMy scales don't go that low - the numbers aren't there Now, that reminds me of how low can you go.
I have laughed and laughed and laughed. My second husband told me that his first wife apparently resembled the "elderly" lady when she was 18. Apparently the gravity had already attacked her or that was his impression. That's my story and I'm sticking to it. (When I wrote that I first wrote stinking - Freud!)
I adore pin cushions. I've been collecting pincushion patterns with the idea of making some pincushions for the boutique at our guild's next quilt show which is in June 2014. T think I'd better get started instead of collecting.
Thank you very much for 1) collaborating with your sister with the creativity; 2) taking those ideas and creating a project; 3) making everyone LAUGH 4) creating an inspiring, fun, and useful pincushion; 5) sharing with the rest of us; 6) just being you; and 7) having a generous giveawy. Many, many, thanks!
You really do have a wild and wicked sense of humour!! And yes, you are correct. Can't believe what has happened over the years! Love the pom poms and their placement. Your cushion is perfect.
ReplyDeleteAnd your pin cushion is lots of fun too. How many pomp poms did you have to make and how much yarn did you use. Wow!
Always love seeing what mischief you come up with on these hops!
We don't have Spring here. But I love to spend time in the garden during this season
ReplyDeleteGive me a moment....I'm still shaking of laugther! I love your contibution to this bloghop! The pincushoin is great, but your Amy Bradley's "All about me" version is super! Thank you for sharing so much fun!
ReplyDeleteLove the pom poms. Rah Rah!
ReplyDeleteWhat a hoot! Now that's quite an interpretation of "Shake my pom-poms!!" I, too, am always loosing my pincushions and yours seems the perfect solution - very cute.
ReplyDeleteBWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Thanks for a wonderful laugh :) I could use some bright spring duckies, too! Happy spring. Here's hoping it shows up for you sooner than later (we're scheduled for a *little* more snow tomorrow)!
ReplyDeleteI think I SPIT on my screen when I laughed at your pictures. oh my gosh... hilarious!! I don't want to win, but HAD to comment :-)
ReplyDeleteLOL, your cushion is hilarious! The pincushion is fun and I'm sure you won't lose this one. Thanks for the laughs! Spring seems to be late here. We had too many below seasonal temperatures in April. Things are looking up now though. I should be able to go out in shorts and sandals tomorrow afternoon. I better make sure my legs and toes are ready for that!
ReplyDeleteYou are simply the best!!!!
ReplyDeleteI can´t imagine that we will see anything like this in the hop.
So funny, so unique, fantastic!!!!
Thank you for making me laugh ☺
Your pompom ladies are sooo cute! Very creative.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing!
I love your reversible pillow. This made me laugh when I saw it. Thanks so much for sharing.
