Pincushion update, Pin making update, Spain!

Just a quick post on a few random things.

First, the pincushion kits that you all requested are just about ready to ship out.  What I lack in timliness, I'm trying to make up for in presentation.  I hope you like them.  I actually had more than I thought I did, so a few more of you are going to be getting e-mails to ask for your address.  :-)

Second, remember in my post about the pincushions, I said you should decorate a pin and send me a photo?  Some of you have asked questions about that.  I'm trying to do a quick demonstration of one idea of what I mean, and I'll try to post that later this week.  Remember, you can be in a drawing to win this charm pack of Delighted! by playing along.  More information in my post about the pincushions.

(This photo is not mine.  I got it from http://looklex.com/index.htm.  Want to make sure they get photo credit.)

Finally, I think I have a few European readers out there.  I'm leaving a week from Sunday for Granada, Spain!  I can't wait!  It's for a conference for work, but I arranged it so I'll have a couple of days to play.  I am wondering if you have any suggestions for me as to what I must see in Granda, any side trips that might be fun for a day, or any fiber/craft-oriented shops I must hit.  I would love your help!  Thank you!

Until next time,

Mama Pea

Enjoy Spain! I have wanted to go there for a long time and even took up Spanish so I'll be prepared when I finally do. No advice for side trips but please try all the tapas, eat chocolate and churros for breakfast and tell us all about it when you get back. :-)

Oh what fun! I've always wanted to go to Spain. My parents have been several times. They have friends who live in Madrid. Be careful who you ask about fabric/quilt shops. My mom asked someone on the street if they knew anything about a quilt shop in the area and got a strange look with a NO. She later found out that they way she was phrasing her question meant locally that she was asking about a prostitution house! LOL
