Finger/thumb pincushions

Well, yesterday was patchwork class day, so I took some finger/thumb pincushions I made to give to my friends. They were a big hit, and I was asked for the pattern .
They only took about 10 mins to make as well..and are soo easy to use as I am always looking for the pins and needles ..

Well, you get the idea?

If they were turned the other way I think they would also make great finger puppets?

mice? or anything with a pointy nose??
