Mouse and Coverlet Heart Pincushion *SOLD*

I’ve stitched this heart from coverlet fabric and added one of my tiny plush mice. It has a linen tuffet stitched to the front and is trimmed with vintage buttons, rusty bell, and vintage thread. It hangs by a braided woolen cord. About 12 inches long, not including the cord. Created with many loving stitches in my smoke free home, a Sassafras Hill original. *'tis spoken for, thanks so much!*

**SOLD**Wool Punched Shamrock Pinkeep

I love how this turned out. It looks like I could have found it in a box of treasures at an antique store. The shamrock is created by rug punching with hand dyed and aged 100% wool yarn, so the variation in shades is charming. The background is an open weave linen from Scotland. The shamrock is surrounded by a wreath of cross stitches worked in cotton thread. The back is a piece of reproduction fabric and bears my signature. It is firmly stuffed with local carded wool so if using as a pinkeep, your pins will stay sharp and rust free. The height is about two inches and the circumference is almost six inches.

Wool Black Cat

A little wool cat in hand-dyed antique black with a hand stitched face and stuffed with wool batting. You may not be able to see in the photo so I will mention that I have stitched by hand around the entire cat body with a variegated dark thread to add a final primitive touch to the piece. This item was designed and created by me. Perfect size to be a cute addition to your sewing basket as a pincushion or as an addition to your autumn decor. Measures about 5 inches long and 4 inches tall. Kindly asking $28 which includes shipping.

Sold ***Crow Pincushion

Wool is one of my favorite fabrics to work with. This sweet crow pincushion is made entirely of wool. The crow is black with black and white stiffened wings. He is proudly perched on a stick. He has a glass pumpkin charm in his beak and the word crow, spelled out in beads is securely attached to the gray wool pumpkin. The pumpkin stem is a real stem that I dried from last year’s Halloween pumpkins. I attached a wire tendril near the stem and added two pins to the pumpkin. It stands approximately 6” tall. Kindly asking $55.00 and $7.50 for travel fare.

I included a blue strawberry so you could be patriotic. $45 for six berries which includes shipping. You are purchasing group "A". Group "B" is in another listing.

Sweet Bunny Pinkeep

Spring is finally here! These sweet rabbit pinkeeps were made using dark brown wool fabrics with cream polka-dot wool for their ears. They sit on wool tuffets holding bright orange carrots that were just picked from the garden. They are 7" tall from the bottom of their tuffets to the tip of their ears. They are firmly stuffed with polyester stuffing and their tuffets are packed tightly with pine shavings. They are wearing bows around their necks and their tails are vintage buttons. I added a tiny flower charm and glass beads on a safety pin, two Easter egg pins made by me, and a really sweet hand-sculpted carrot by Pink Dragonfly Crafts on Etsy. Kindly asking $65.00 and $10.00 for travel fare. I have two of these sweet bunnies.
