Sew Organised Pincushion
PDF Pattern
£5.00 plus local taxes or VAT
The Sew Organised Pincushion is more than just somewhere for your pins. It is your personal sewing work-station, with two styles of pockets on the outside, space for your pins, and a centre section for your clips.
The inner section is made from foam, and I have included a guide to help you cut and prepare yours
Two sides have flat pockets, each divided into four sections, ideal for scissors or a seam ripper
The other two sides have three pleated pockets, great for sewing machine feet, hump jumper, washi tape, or anything else you like to have for your sewing projects
The pattern uses dots to help you to stitch accurately
The base is self-bound, making it less fiddly to bind the edges
The whole project is sewn, before feeding it around the foam, so you can get a tight, neat finish
The binding is stitched by hand, using embroidery floss to make it a feature
As a bonus, I explain how to add buttons so that you can add one of my Hanging Half-Buckets to make a thread catcher
Finished size:
approximately. 6" square (7" at base) x 3" high
