Not Quite Finished-Monthly Goal

Hey Everyone!

Happy almost weekend!

Well.. I am disappointed to say that I have yet to finish my January goal.
There is still time but with others things that I have going on, I think I will have to put him on the back burner for a little while.
Mom wasn't too worked up at not getting her little buddy yet. :)

My picture isn't great but at least you can see that he looks (almost) like a turtle. ;)

His butt seam (lol) isn't great but that should be completely hidden after his shell is added. :)

I wish there were some other pictures of this guy on line, but I can't find any.

I Hope he turns out as cute as he is in the pattern!

I stuffed him with lots of poly-fil, added a good handful of steel pellets (actually buck-shot, lol) and added fine steel-wool to the top and half way down the sides. I really wanted my cushion to be a sharpening tool for pins as well as a holder and a cute little listener! ;)

Hopefully when I DO finish this guy, I will totally GET how to make the next 5 or 15 that I am dying to make. lol

 I am linking up with Patty at ElmStreetQuilts!

What do you stuff pincushions with!?

    Awww, he is going to be adorable!! I don't know what kind of filler will sharpen pins but I have heard that walnut shells have been used for filler, not sure why that is though.

I truely enjoy your comments and questions and I answer every single one! =D
Though, during giveaways it gets difficult and I try to keep it easy on myself. ;)
However, if you are a no-reply blogger I can't -but I still try. =(
If your not sure, ask me, I'll help you fix it!
