Sew Everything Workshop Den of Pin Pincushion – Getting My Sewing Materials Together!

My sewing progress continues, confirming that my new sewing category was not too hasty of a move. 

This latest project is also from the Sew Everything Workshop book, my go-to sewing instruction book.  And perhaps most exciting, this project features materials that I ordered from the Sew Everything Workshop author herself, via Diana Rupp's Make Workshop online store.

And the exciting outcome from this project – it organizes a critical sewing accessory, helping to cement me as a true sewist.  

Pin Cushion - First Completed

As one can tell from the above picture, this simple project (which turned into projects after I made the first one) is a simple pincushion, stuffed with polyfill.  

I used some leftover cotton for the top of the pincushion and felt for the bottom.  The pincushion was then accessorized with some embroidery floss for a polished look.

This project only requires one use of the sewing machine, to sew three edges of the top fabric to the back.  The remaining edge is then hand-sewn using a slipstitch, which took me a few tries to understand and complete a clean-ish edge.

I am really pleased with how these pincushions turned out, and I can see myself making more in the future!
