I cut into some of my stash of Annie's fabric and matched some of the stitched images with the fussy cut squares on the top. I think I will do this again when I make the next Annie project.
Also I ended up hand stitching in the circles. I did try to use the sewing machine but did such a bad job that I decided that I preferred the better accuracy of hand stitching. Did anyone else find this ?

Looking lovely, Lynda. Handstitching - what a good idea; I'm sure mine would have looked less like a lopsided mini-beanbag if I'd followed your lead!
Lynda, they look gorgeous, and lovely fussy cutting of the fabrics. If I had found it difficult to sew the circles on the machine I would have handstitched, but they worked quite well so I was happy.
Lynda - I should have hand stitched too I think - the top wasn't too bad but the bottom is pretty wonky. Nevermind. Yours look lovely - gorgeous colours and fussy cutting always earns extra points!!
Lovely finish - love the fabrics too
Beautiful fabric! I love it!
Both your pincushions look lovely.. and stitching seemed a good idea as yours are nice and round..
so pretty....
