I'd like to know about the filling too. And did you glue them into the containers? I have some really cute little Disney cans from a coffee sampler that was given to me and want to make them into pincushions.

I love the way yours turned out.

Those are very nice. I love pretty cups, dishes of any sort. And to have a good use is even better!

I used e6000 to glue a wad of left over poly fill into the bottom of container...about half way up. Then I cut a circle of fabric and stuffed it with some cotton batting scraps and gathered it closed and glued it in snugging it down firmly. It took me longer to find the itty bitty containers. The cups and such are express size. I have made them in a bigger cup but I just love those little ones.

I think they are adorable, but if you could send me one to use, try it out and admire it daily, I could give you my best opinion :):):)
