A friend's birthday is today and I wanted to make a little something for her. I found a cool tutorial to make a sewing caddy/pin cushion (link) on the Blue Patch Quilter's blog and thought I give it try.
When filling the caddy, I put steel wool at the top to help keep pins & needles sharp... and I made a bean bag to put in the bottom to give it a little weight. I think it turned out nicely...
What a great little birthday gift! Your friend is going to love it.
ReplyDeleteHello,
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful pincushion, I like that the scissors and other things are with the pincushion. A very thoughtful gift for your friend.
Happy days.

ReplyDeleteWell! That is just the cutest thing I've seen on the web in a while. I may have to make one (or 10 for gifts) of those.
