Red Chicken Feeder Pinkeep

For this pinkeep I used another really sweet alphabet fabric from French General. The background is aged red with tiny blue flowers. The center pincushion is packed tightly with wool. I added a blue wool flower to this one and added red glass-head pins to each petal and a white vintage button to the center. These are perfect to hold extra scissors, thread, buttons, even chocolate! Who doesn’t need a snack or two when stitching? I am including this cute little pair of stork scissors with the pinkeep. Kindly asking $32.00 and $5.50 for shipping.
