Great tutorial, Joelle. They're sweet & simple -- a good combo.

Nice tutorial. Those are the best pins ever. I call them Life Changing Pins. Its like when you first pin with them it's like you never pinned before. Amazing.

The pincushions are absolutely beautiful. I don't know why I'm so drawn to them. Something about the simplicity, the functionality and the care with which you chose the fabrics. I just love them. Thanks for the tutorial!

i'm a new sewer and just made one following your tutorial and it actually looks like the picture! yippee! thanks, and i love the pins and that lovely japanese fabric, too.

This is darling. I am thinking I will try it, with the change that I will add a layer of thin quilt batting to line the fabric, and then fill the whole thing up with fine silica sand so that I can make a sharpening pincushion. I'll let you know how it turns out.
