Pincusion Tatting Done

I am very tickled with this one. It's from the book called The Classic Collection/Tatting Patterns by the staff of Workbasket Magazine. 1990. The directions have several errors, so it was a challenge, but it turned out pretty cute. Now it's my seamstress' job (aka my daughter) to make a formed insert that we can fill with emery to turn it into a pincusion.

Gorgeous- does your book say in which issue this originally appeared? I'd love to do it for my new nephew

Thanks, Michelle. I don't know which issue, but I've posted the question to the Workbasket Yahoo group, so maybe someone there will be able to help. I'll let you know.
