The pattern was "Pin Cushion Doll and Strawberry Emery" from Makeit by Sewing Chest Designs. I don't know if they're still around.Moonsilk Stitcheshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10659720657383001401noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4937013312347363010.post-42706234287925232212013-02-08T13:47:09.370-06:002013-02-08T13:47:09.370-06:00I love that one too...where did you find the patte...I love that one too...where did you find the pattern?

I didn't like the verse on the original design and thus the project languished for years. But I did love the idea, and I finally found a verse I liked to substitute. <b>"I cannot count the day complete 'till needle, thread, and fabric meet."</b> (I had to go look at the doll to double check it. My memory is so bad!)
