Pincushions
 
Oh help! A few days ago I found a tutorial for a pincushion using 6 charm squares and 2 big buttons. Now, thats' right, I can't find it again. Arrrgh! I have looked all over and I am lost, I know I should have bookmarked it but I didn't. There was a nice PDF but I've lost it in cyberspace. I tried Pintrest, Google, Bing but still couldn't find it. If anyone can help, I would certainly appreciate it. Thanks.

Sorry, it isn't ringing any bells for me. Can you describe it a bit more? Was it round, square, flat, colour.....?

Think you sew the squares together like the letter t...right? Just guessing

Is This It?
 
I typed in pincushion with six charm squares and came up with one that may be what you are looking for. Try modabakeshop.com/2009/04/sugar-cube.com. Not sure that is all correct but it is called a sugar cube pincushion. Looks like it might be the one.

Thanks for the info. That is almost what I want. The one I saw wasn't paper pieced. I can still use those instructions but it's driving me crazy that I can't find the original one. Just silly me. Thanks.

Here is a site with several pincushions. I like number 18 looks simple, it uses 2 buttons.

I hope you find it! That turtle one is adorable!

I did what abc123xyz said to and a gorgeous little pincushion showed up just as you said with 2 1/2 inch square in a t formation. I am thinking about doing up one.

vondae 04-20-2013 08:47 AM

I am now intrigued. If you find it will you share with us, please?

Next time, book mark it on the computer and you should be able to retrieve it.

Can you go to the history section of your website visits for yesterday as it records all the sites that you visit.
Possibly that will get you back to the website that you saw the pincushion pattern.

gzuslivz 04-20-2013 02:45 PM

I have one that is one square on the top, one on the bottom. Fold four more squares on the diagonal twice and line them up around the edges with the folded point toward the center. Stitch around, turn. stuff and sew the buttons on. Is this clear? Clear as mud?

There's a 2-part tutorial in the Quilting Board "Articles" section for a cube pincushion with a large button. It doesn't use charms, but can certainly adapted.

lauriejo 05-05-2013 01:26 PM

This one is about the same as the Moda one, but no paper piecing.
