I can never find my pin cushions or magnetic holders! When I came across this embroidered idea for machine embroidery, I just had to try it! Now I can't seem to sew with out it as it is always visible or holding something up high enough that it's easy to spot!

Start with an old candle stick

Stitch out an embroidered circle

Stuff it very tight and tie it on

Make sure it's tided on very tight!
