A New Finish

Hello, hello, hello.  Hope everyone is doing good on this fine Thursday.  The weekend is almost here and that means yard work.  Yuk! 
 I just finished from Cathy at Hand's On Designs her Pomegranate Pocket and it was a fun stitch!  I now wish I had deviated from Cathy's directions and made it a padded pocket....I always like them better for some reason.  I knew Cathy about 20 years ago while working in a local LNS here in Florida and I wish her nothing but success with her designs.  
The Pocket
The Matching Pincushion
The Set

I love how she stitched the pincushion and the finishing for it.  If you stitch this design, follow Cathy's instructions carefully.  It's a might tricky.
Thank you Cathy for designing such a fantastic pattern!
Vickie.....now it's your turn.

Blessings, Barbara

Beautiful finishes. I met Cathy at the PALS retreat a couple years ago. She's a nice gal.

What a beautiful set. I love the colour pomegranate. When I was little the only thing I knew about pomegranates was the Persephone ate one in the Underworld. I had never seen one in real life and did not know they were this glorious colour!
