Below is a close up of the Needle Book. It has six pages for needles, with room to add four more if wanted. It is approximately one inch thick, and is very much a little book.

Below is the Pin Keep. The pins go into the cording on the edge and into the center of the heart. Room for many pins. The flower in the upper right corner was made using several treatments. The pot, center and lower leaves ere all done in detached buttonhole. The stem is couched. The upper leaves are done in needle weaving. I dyed the hearts and edging with Easter egg dye. My first attemp at dying.
