Canberra Brown Owls :: pincushions & needlebooks

Hello Owls!

I have to be honest - I love all of the bits and pieces that go along with craft!
Some of the handiest accessories for crafting are needlebooks and pincushions, and I've seen so many cute tutorials around the internet lately that I thought it would be fun to try some out at the Canberra Brown Owls May meeting.

I've also been collecting some of my favourite needle books and pin cushions on pinterest have a little peek if you'd like, and there is always loads of inspiration flickr - try the pincushions, pins and needlebooks group
