pin cushions

Just recently made a list of things I want to make.  It's a long list and some of the things on it?  I don't even have the requisite skills to complete them yet.

But I can do pincushions.  None are finished yet. . . when they are, pictures to come.  But here are some of the components of future pin cushions:

I wanna make pin cushions.

These are some of the bases--crocheted and then felted. Just like the cups I use to make my ringcatchers, but deeper. The tops are going to be a tiny mound covered in embroidered material.

But A. I haven't quite figured out how to attach them in a pretty unobtrusive way that doesn't look chintsy and B. I can't seem to light a fire under myself to do the embroidery.

I'm a craft procrastinator. . . but maybe posting the picture here will inspire me to get a move on.
