- This pin cushion is a lot simpler to make than it looks, the trick is to use a quilters grid! The method is similar to the cosmetic case on my channel but using smaller squares, and would look really effective made into larger items such as bags or cushion covers!
I've used Lewis and Irene Bluebell Wood fabric
Materials from www.debbieshoresewing.com
You will need:
4 strips of fabric each measuring 1" x 16" [2.5cm x 41cm]
2 pieces for the back each measuring 5" x 3" [13cm x 8cm]
8" x 8" [20cm x 20cm] of 1" [2.5cm] quilters grid
handful of toy filler
Finished size: 4" x 4" [10cm x 10cm] - Jak na to + styl
How adorable is this? The quilter's grid is awesome. I really like the 2 different fabrics on the back. Sometimes I close a pincushion on the back with a "Frankenstein" stitch then either hand sew or iron on an applique. Thanks so much for this tutorial and I'm off to order some quilter's grid!
Loved this technique and used it to make a small purse to go with my cross body bag! Thank you Debbie for sharing your creations with us!
Brilliant !!!!!!
So lovely
So pretty! I will try this too!
Hi Debbie when I have seen the grid used before the have always snipped after sewn to make it lie flatter as it can be a bit bulky but yours worked well without doing that although you did use a starch which I haven't seen before on a project using the grid. Thank you Gillian
Thank you great idea. Now going to start a sewing link with my daughter in the Uk. I got her the quilters grid paper and drawn the grid my paper. Using the left overs from making 530 masks.
I've never seen a grid like that. Very clever! Thank you ❤️
Love it ❣️ Thank you for sharing this. 😊
Beautiful! 🤩
I will be making that. So cute Thank you Debbie
How cute !!! I love the board you used to iron and cut on.. do you have a video on how to make it ?
I agree, I’d love to make one.
This board was on sale on Debbie’s shop -not sure if she still has stock though ,otherwise try Amazon. However she did make a slightly larger ironing pad ( no inserts of cutting mat like this one) on You tube January 2 nd 2021
Thanks deb
I like the folding ironing board and cutting mat folder, do you have a video on that? Thank you.
That’s one from my website, I’m afraid I didn’t make it…
Love this little pin cushion. I recently found your Chanel. I’m going to try this. I’m in love with the cute bunny’s behind you in the video. After searching your Chanel I can’t seem to find them. Can you point me in the right direction please. I love bunny’s xx
fabulous tutorial. I’m thinking of getting into patchwork but never done before and have no knowledge or tools. Did you make that folder yourself it’s great for small items or did you buy it. I don’t sew so an absolute novice and will hand sew till I get some experience and see if I can do it before buying a sewing machine. Thank you for sharing Ive liked and subscribed ❤ xx
Hi Debbie Shore! Truly a dear little pincushion! Watching you makes me think...do you think it would work to quilt your square without first stitching & complete the pincushion as usual? Give it a raw edge look...
Have a blessed day!
I think that’s a great idea!
Miss Debbie, is there a way to do it without the quilters grid? We do not have that here. Can I draw the squares onto a piece of fusible pellon (interfacing). Would that work?
@@pamcanning8592 Thank you very much.
It's available on Amazon for 9$ a yard
@@MarciaBaker1205 Thanks but I live in the Caribbean. :-(
Absolutely!
Quite cute isn't it. Thank you😊💐
Could you stuff it with something to sharper pins at the same time?
I think I’m going to do this to match my armchair caddy!
