Free Pin Cushion Patterns

There are many cute ideas here. I think the cushion that wraps around the sewing machine is a great idea!

Wow, the motherlode of pincushion ideas! I've seen old Singers with a pin cushion sleeve mounted on the arm but people complain that the machine finish gets scratched underneath them.

I made a couple that I put around my machines but they look like little pillows on the front and tie around on to the back so that way when you put pins in they don't hit the machine. I'll take a pic. later and post.

If you slip a piece of cardboard or flexible craft metal into the back of the one that wraps around the machine, you can help to protect the finish. Just be careful not to miss the cushion.
