gcathie,
thanks so much for posting this. i am always looking for cute pincushions and this is adorable! my mom kinda collects them, she's got them all over her sewing room but like diamonds, you can never have enough! :lol: i made one that was a cube not too long ago for her, but this would be a great little addition, for sure.

sewnsewer2.....You are very welcome!

Quilting Aggi....Thanks....already on that one :D :wink:

retrogirl02....Oh how much fun that would be.....bet your a pro at making pincushions...post yours when you get it done....I really like mine...

Our guild made them to "sell" (they were free with a $5 or more contribution) at the art festival here. I think we sold 400 or so. We used it as a fundraiser to support our philanthropy project. Ours were really simple...rectangular pin cushion filled with sand for weight and then the bag attached to that. They turned out really cute though.

really cute, cathie--great gift idea

Ooooh I love this, I am so gonna try and make it. At the moment I am using a plastic baggie for scraps and threads, but the cats keep running off with it. Although they might try the same with this! Thanks

bj....that is a very good idea....wow 400 or so......That is great!


Marcia....Thanks... :D


PrettyKitty....good luck with those kittys! If it doesn't want to stay may some velcro....

These are precious! :) Where's the pattern? I'd love to try!

uh oh...you mean I'm not supposed to just throw the threads on the floor? I have to put them in something?

That is really cute!

Hi girls ...thanks for your comments....the pattern is on page 1 of this post....enjoy I've made several more of these and use all of them in different locations....

Oh yea babeegirl you can still throw them stings on the floor....put your scissors or pins or pencils in the catcher....taaa daaahhhh
