More Pincushions

These are so practical!
I place one next to my machine,
one on my cutting table and
one at the ironing board.
The square part has bating in it and dry beans in the bottom for weight.
The scrap bag has boning to hold the bag open.
It is PERFECT for catching those small scraps
and tread as you cut and sew.

Here is a teacup pincushion...
beautiful and useful!

Teaspoon Pin Cushions

These are so easy to make and are pretty sitting around anywhere, plus they keep a needle and tread handy! I bought some cheap, but pretty teaspoons from the thrift store, used a hot glue gun to glue down the fabric (from scraps) and wool sweater scraps. Use lace or brads to trim it out add a ribbon and there you have it! These make great hostess gifts too!
