The watermelon is a paper pieced pattern I adapted front and back the same and filled with sand.
And a colorful little pear.
A fun place to create and show off your recent pincushion creations.

As a sewer I try and challenge myself to make new things. As for favorite things, I try to sew many.
Pincushions are a favorite of mine. A challenge to myself this year is to make a pincushion a week for a year.
I am new to blogging. And will be learning this as I post pictures and comments.
Please feel free to leave comments and suggestions. Thanks for stopping by.
This pincushion is made from a candlestand I found at a local resale shop. I love the upper lip. it is perfect for bobbins. I crosstitched a tomato on the top to hold my pins. With several sewing themed emblishments on the bottom it is one of my favorites. For a $1.00 and a little time.

Do you have any small frames? Make a standup pincushion out of an empty mini frame.Chose a favorite fun fabric and glue emblishments on the front. This was a gift for a recent swap.
