quilty projects
 

I saw a couple of videos that came up in my YouTube feed that looked very handy and easy to complete. The first was a pin cushion-thread catcher combo from Mansewing (part of Missouri Star). The other was a sewing machine mat from Missouri Star. I made the pin cushions first. The green one is mine, LSU so for Kimberly, and Halloween is for my sister (who is working on her first quilt!). I've only done one mat so far, but will now have to do an LSU and Halloween soon. Thanks for looking.

Great job! Those are cool and handy.

Those look handy.

Pretty and practical. Well done.

Those are both great projects & yours turned out really well. I made a pin cushion/thread catcher similar to yours. I put a little empty round plastic butter container in my thread catcher. It makes for easy removal of threads when full. Thanks for sharing your lovelies with us. I used that green plastic strapping that Home Depot has to strap down lumber in mine for circle top of the bag. Home Depot will give it to you for free.

What a cute idea!! I see all these things and they are so cute and then say"How come I didn't think of that?"

nicely done

Very nice!!!

Very nice job. I love making organizers. Also, love, love, love your sewing table set up. Wish I had something exactly like it!

I made one of those years ago. My pattern called for hook and loop tape to attach the bag making it easy to empty. What did you use in the pin cushion?
