A Cat Person Makes A Boston Terrier Pincushion!

I am unashamedly a cat person.  As such I have made cat pincushions but not one featuring a dog.  I got asked about this when I was selling at the Quilt Show recently and then earlier in the week a good friend and dog lover asked me about it too.  She has a crazy, cookie stealing Boston Terrier and it was this dog that was the inspiration for this pincushion.  

 As always I began with sketches and then created a pattern.  From the pattern I sewed up the individual pieces.  I'm very happy with how it turned out.  (I'm still a cat person though!)






You can find the finished pincushion here in my Etsy shop.  It was a fun design to work on!
