The pincushions came out of the washer like a bunch of grapes, as usual, and they were nicely felted. A high efficiency washer will spin them so fast that they're not "wet" when they come out, but they're damp.

I have to let them dry for days until they are completely dry all the way to the center (don't want rusty pins).


This one's my favorite in this batch...

Wool pincushions have lanolin which will keep pins and needles slick and shiny.

Those are so cool!
I can tell that you are getting ready for the upcoming show!!!!
I love the variegated colors you used. Did you use wool yarn? Pencil roving? Very nice!!
