I would like to make some pin cushions for Xmas gifts, all ideas wellcome.

I made these little pin cushions using applesauce cups with a metal washer in the bottom for weight. Stuffed with whatever your choice and covered with quilted fabric with elastic casing at the bottom. I used various colors of felt to cover the bottom with both fabrics glued on. They may be decorated any way you like. Make nice gifts.

That's a neat idea. Great for recycling too.

ChrisB is there a pattern for those online? They are great.

Look for the patterns from Miss Rosies Quilt Co., They have a line called Fruit Salad Pincushions. The water mellon and strawberry's are really nice. I'm working on them now.
Also the current F&P magazine has an owl that's really cute too

There have been some really cute pin cushions on here. I would love to try some too.

Our own Dotty here made a cupcake pin cushion that was adorable. A donut too,and it looked real! I want to try a few for Christmas presents. I believe they are in Tutorials here.

No pattern online that I am aware of. These were my own idea.

There have been a couple of pincushion swaps, boy are some of those really cute!
