Default Pin Cushion

Does anyone out there have a cute little pattern for a pin cushion for a 10 year old?

This one is pretty cute

with supervision, I think a 10 year old could make it- and certainly love it.

maybe one of these?

lots more cute patterns here:
https://thesewingloftblog.com/pincushion-patterns/

and a cute "purse" for pins here
https://boutiquenutmegdesigns.blogsp...-tutorial.html

almost any of these tiny plushy free patterns would make adorable pin cushions:

Sunflower Pin Cushion Craft for Mother's Day

is a spoof. When you click this link it will only take you to disney dot com

I did not try any of the rest of the links so those may or may not work.

Here is a cute 5 pointed pin cushion. It is fun to make and if you wanted it smaller all you need to do is adjust the size of the squares

My eight year old grand loves to make these. I have a shelf full of them. LOL
https://www.fatquartershop.com/homes...ts-pincushions They can be made in any size. So easy and pretty. I fill the bottom point with rice so it will sit sturdy but that's optional.

This brings back memories. In 4H we made pin cushions using a mason jar ring lid and a mason jar sealing lid. You took padding and glued it to the flat sealing lid and then pushed the lid 'ring' down over it, gluing it into place around the edges. The padding was thick enough that the flat sealing lid was the bottom of the pin cushion with the extra fabric we glued it over the flat sealing lid covering the bottom. We made them for our 'first' project. A nice memory!

It looked like this only with a mason jar lid for the 'ring' example
