January Crafting... Part 1

My first crafting kit of the year and treat to myself, Crafty Nana's Teatime Cakes Pin Cushion Kit.  I bought this from Boots during the sales for £8 (Half Price - whoop whoop!).

Pre-cut felt!  Yeah, no cutting required!  (err... actually, I did cut a few pieces!  My attempt to improve the Layered Cake & Victoria Sponge!)  I was a bit 50/50 with this kit.  I wasn't sure of the quality of the felt (was cringing at the possibility of getting synthetic felt - personal!)

I was pleasantly surprised!  Clear instructions booklet with pictures, for those who like the step-by-step.  I flicked through it and made adjustments here and there.  c=('-'C)  The felt was nice to handle and the colours were pleasing too (to my eyes anyway).   The imagery did not allude this! Plenty of stuffing, quite firm pin cushions with excess.  The floss complemented the felt well.  I still have plenty left over, even after using some in my next kit!
