Beautiful. What better habitat could there be, especially to sit back and look at that fantastic wall hanging.

Yes! You are right. You have a good eye. The photo is not as clear as I had hoped it to be.

Behind the real buttons, I had used button fabric. Thank you for looking.

Thank you for your kind words. No, I did not use a pattern. The wall-hanging measures 36" square. I found the various blocks from different books or blogs. The large sewing machine template was found in a blog called, Ellison Lane Quilts. It was used in a tutorial for making a sewing machine cover. Thanks for your kind words.

I borrowed a book from a friend that had the paper piecing patterns for the pincushion, button jar, large spool of thread and basket (I filled with fabric scraps). I will email her today and find out the name of the book so I can let you know. The block sizes are 6.5" along the right and left sides. To find the large center sewing machine template, try googling "Ellison Lane Quilts. There is a tutorial on her blog and a template for the sewing machine.
I hope this helps. Stay tuned.
