Easy Pincushion Tutorial

Thanks for the detailed advice!

Thank you for this tutorial, I made my first pin cushion today. Is there any way to make this so that the upper stich is not visible at all?

you could take the stuffing out of an old pillow for filling. thats what im doing.

Just finished one! I wish I could share a pic of it here. I’m so happy with it! 😀

can u use left over wool to fill your pin cushions

COOL! where can I get the crushed walnut sand?

I've never made a pincushion before, (My sewing level is: still using training wheels).
Before watching this video, (& I've watched multiple), my pincushion project produced something that looked like a fabric covered bean bag with stitches showing, no less.
After the video, I made a pincushion that looked 100% like a pincushion, (just two fabric patterns = front & back), & am quite happy with the results..
Then, today, I made one with multiple fabrics, (like how she showed on the video), & I think I'm addicted. :).
Thanks so much for this video!!
P.S. I bought one of those 4.5 inch square rulers because of this video & what fun it is to use & create!!!

Cute cute cute! I’m definitely gonna make this for my sister in law! She’ll love this. Tk you!

So cleaver.  Inspired to play with scraps and make some of these to gift others. Thanks for sharing. Love your teaching style.

This is making me wanna sew my own pincushions. 🙂 It looks like so much fun!

I loved your pincushion tutorial I love making them for gifts thank you

Magic!

My kids cut a hole in my store-bought pincushion. So I'm making a new one today and hoping to just use the same filler. I love the scrappy look pincushion as well as the button one.

In this video, you recommend using polyfil stuffing and crushed walnut shells together to stuff pin cushions. I have tried both fillings individually, but not “mixed” together. Can you please tell me how you combine the 2 fillings? They are such different consistencies. (Using crushed walnut shells alone just feels too heavy and clunky to me). Thank you!

Thank you! Definitely making one for me. Yay!

I have learned so much from your channel and I'm so thankful I found you! I'm very new to sewing and having so much fun with it so far. I would like to ask you what cutting mat you would recommend? I'm getting ready to invest in a larger one. Thanks again! 🙂 PS I love the pincushions! I think I'm going to make a bunch up for Christmas gifts!

I love this idea! I have lots of fleece scraps, 4 inch squares left over from fleece blankets. do you think fleece would work? with the button of course! thank you, subscribing!

I like those little things and walnut shells! WowI have to make one -with my favorite fabrics. WonderfulMy dog got a hold of one of those "tomato" things there was something like your walnut shells in it, I just had no idea what it was. She ate a good bite ful or spilled it somewhere.Thank youBonnie

I love it..but I can be a little clumsy. I know ne, and I don't want to get the grit in my top load bobbin. I'll do a mix where I put the poly fill on that last area before stitching. love your channel.

Can you use sand instead of crushed walnut shells?

LOVE IT!!! thanks x

i made mine 2 ½ × 2½ came out perfect thanks! (i berly have any pins) lol

Love this!!! : ) So simple and fun to do. Thank you for sharing!! : )

I recently came across your channel and have been binge watching a bunch of your videos as I really enjoy your teaching methods and your honesty about the pros & cons of the things you make. Thanks for being such an inspiration! (:
