A pin cushion!!
This little project didn't take much time at all... and it was so much fun!
(Does the fabric look familiar?) :)
My grandmother's sewing machine makes a great prop, don't you think?
Here is a link to the tutorial I used to make this little pin cushion. It is really easy! I didn't do the wrist strap and I made it a tad bigger - my squares were 4 inches. (It looked a little confusing to me at first, but once I got going, it made sense.) This went so fast, even for a first time, I may end up making more! (hmm... they would make great gifts! Shhhh... don't tell!) :)

What fun crafts have you been up to? (It doesn't even have to be recent, just something you would like to share! Guidelines are here.
NEWS BREAK: After careful consideration during the past week, I have decided to move FOF to every other week. This frees me up a little more to do other blogging (Friday Show and Tell!), and most of you, like me, don't have something new every week. I had considered going monthly, but I think every other week will be good for now! :) You are welcome, also, to link to a post from the past couple of weeks for FOF, it doesn't have to be posted on the FOF Friday. (I'm not really picky, but I do appreciate a link back here!) :)
ETA: Just to clarify - FOF doesn't have to be something you made recently. It can also be a past project from any time. However, the post should be fairly recent. Make sense? :)

I just had to say hello, from one Charity to another :) You don't see too many of us so I like to say hi!
ReplyDeleteNo time to play this week :(
ReplyDeleteJust droppin' by to say Hello and see your cute project :)
(I did recognize the fabric, too)
Charity,
ReplyDeleteThat is so cute! I'm catching up with you and the socks are really pretty too!!
I've been thinking about making a pin cushion lately. The perfect thing for those little pieces of left over fabric!
ReplyDeleteAn every other week FOF sounds like a great plan. Like you say, it's hard to find time to do a project every week. But somehow, I always find myself in the middle of another project whether I have time or not :)
