Country Cousins Block #6

This block number 6 to the "Country Cousins".... This block is called "Bowl of Tulips"... It was a different to applique.. as all the others that I did, I enjoy appliqueing... There is something about how relaxing it is to sew... This block took a while because of the many pieces... Now, I am preparing the next block and I will start it soon.... :)
This is a pin cushion called "Buckshot" .... If you click on the picture you will see the fabric I used... It is 8 tri-angles filled with "Silica Gel".... This product is used for drying flowers, but I read somewhere that it is good to use in pin cushions... It is glandular and it will sharpen you needles as you place them in the pin cushion... Instead of a button on the top, I put this ribbon... I had got the ribbon off the web at "Create for Less" ... There prices are reasonable.... They have a lot of items that a sewer of any kind could use.... It was a fun and quick  project and I got this pattern off the web as well... :)
