If you sew, embroider, have visions of one day being able to sew….. or even just pretend to sew, then you probably have a pincushion!
Pincushions just kind of go with needles and thread.
Which brings me to an important question… how many pincushions are too many?
The answer is…. you can never have too many pincushions!!
That’s like saying you have too much fabric… and us crafters NEVER say that.
So why all this chatter about pincushions today?
I accidentally stood on a pin in my craft room yesterday and that blighter pieced my skin and went in deep… yowser that hurt.
I actually have multiply pincushions and even a magnetic dish, but that one stray pin got away on me. Trust me to find it with my foot.
See how I made my magnetic pin dish HERE.
So today I’m still smarting and thinking about pincushions and stray pins, so thought I’d gather a few pincushion tutorials from my blogging friends… just in case you need to make some more pincushions.
Just remember my motto…. you can never have too many pincushions!!

Hi
I was trying to purchase your country christmas santa ornaments, but when it says to fill out the country, it doesn’t show the us, it only goes to the “L’s” and will not scroll any further, can u help, please
Hi Mary, as the items is an electronic pattern (E-pattern), I don’t need your address, so just skip that bit. I received an order just a few minutes ago from Cincinnati in The US, so it seems to be working??… maybe try again 🙂
Greetings from Canada! Thank you for sharing all the beautiful projects. You have such a knack for making everything look so pretty and well organized. I appreciate the inspiration!
