New Dress form - Pin Cushion

The above dress form pin cushion is sitting on a vintage block it stands at 25cm 9.5"

I have been working on this idea for a couple of days thinking about it, it came into my head while I was trying to sleep the other night, that's when I seem to think about all things! So i set to work this morning on it and this is what I came up with.  I love dress forms and pin cushions!

 I am also going to try and change it a littlle to make it into an ornament for the christmas tree, each year I think of a new ornament for the tree as I love to handmake all my tree ornaments.

On monday I completed another dress form this one was made from paper mache so I working on and of all day and this is the end product.  I am really happy with it.
