Let's make pincushions!

digital misfit- That is awesome! Though hopefully it's not like a voodoo doll. If you poke it with pins do your hands hurt? lol.

[digital misfit]

LOL, well I do have pretty bad carpal tunnel syndrome, so my hands and wrists do feel like pins and needles....hmm 

[Eliea]

Maybe it works like acupuncture then.

okay okay! i made one too! the fabric was leftovers from a crochet hook roll i made my friend for her birthday.

i think next time, smaller circles and still more stuffing!


i love the bright colors and now have an obsession with shank buttons....

Looks great, and the fabric reminds me of summer and watermelon.

[puamelia]

Yes beautiful, loving the colors and fabric pattern! Great job!

[barbolot]

Ooooh, I love those colors together, bunnyrabbit!  Nice job!

I made this one awhile back... inspired by the katamari game (my kids and I love it!)...



And I made this one up this weekend....




It has a shallow bottlecap base inside the pincushion for stability, and especially so the pins and needles don't poke through!  The cuff is made from fabric scraps from my other projects.  Yay, recycling!

That watch pincushion is AWESOME! That is one pincushion I need to own! 
Rockin'!


BTW - Wonder what happened to Fidget? Sure do miss seeing her creativity around Craftster.

[Eliea]

Love the watch pincushion! I have a wrist cushion but I'm constantly poking myself.
What a great desing for both.

I wonder what fidget is up to as well? 

[barbolot]

Thanks, guys! 
You know, I was just wondering about Fidget yesterday...!  Where are you, Fidget??

On another note.... I'm about to organize another pincushion swap if anyone's interested.  (Eliea?  My trusty co-organizer?  just kidding.... I wouldn't put you through that again!    lol  I'm going to have this swap be a small one this time!)
