Swapping Community Showcase
Our vibrant Facebook Community was filled with excitement as members shared progress photos, sneak peeks, and the final reveals of their pin cushion masterpieces! From classic designs to whimsical and modern creations, the variety was truly inspiring. Watching these little works of art come to life in different shapes, colors, and techniques was an absolute joy!
Scrolling through the group posts, it was wonderful to see the encouragement, support, and admiration shared among fellow sewists. If you haven’t yet, be sure to check out the Facebook Community to see all the incredible pin cushions that were exchanged!
Pin Cushion Swap – Our Generous Sponsor
A huge thank you to Brewer, who provided the Tula Pink Hardware. They made this event even more special with their generous contribution of Unicorn Head Straight Pins (30 count)! Their support added an extra layer of excitement to the swap, and we are so grateful for their kindness. 🎉
Swap participants who contributed to the Facebook Community increased their chances of winning. Stay tuned for the winner announcement, and in the meantime, we hope you continue to share your amazing creations with us.
Pin Cushion Swap – Live Show and Tell
To celebrate the swap’s success, we hosted a virtual Show & Tell where participants showcased the gorgeous pin cushions they received. It was such a fun way to connect, share stories, and appreciate the thought and effort put into each creation. Seeing partners express their joy and gratitude made this gathering even more memorable.
It was a fantastic gathering filled with laughter, inspiration, and a shared love for sewing.
Swap Angels
One of the things that makes our swaps so special is the generosity and kindness of our community. Participants had the option to sign up as Swap Angels, ready to step in if needed. We’re happy to share that we did not need a Swap Angel for this swap! Every participant completed their swap successfully, highlighting the dedication and commitment of our amazing community. It’s always heartwarming to know that we have such a supportive network of sewists willing to help out when needed.
Beyond the swap, many new friendships were formed, and the conversations and connections continued well beyond the event. This is what makes our community so unique and wonderful!
