Pomander Roses Pincushion, Pink Keep and Scissor Fob, The Victoria Sampler
Collect the third design in a collection of exquisite and elegant Victorian Pincushions. A third delightful Pincushion for your collection, to go with your Valentine Pincushion and Pansy Pincushion. Each of the sides of the Pomander fob and pin keep have a bouquet of roses, some darker and some lighter. The 5-sided pieces of linen are stitched with beautiful, overdyed silk ribbons and over-dyed silk on soft pink linen. FYI: Carnation Pink linen is discontinued, but Baby Pink is almost exactly the same color. The finishing touch are the sparkling beads and ribbons, silk roses and pink pearl-headed pins to make everything look so elegant! Learning and stitching the Silk Ribbon roses and Japanese Ribbon Stitch leaves are a breeze with the excellent directions found in the back of this leaflet. You will also find clear color photos as a step-by-step guide, so you too can accomplish all the finishing in-hand yourself!
