I toss and turn last night trying to think about what I should be making next
(actually it was 7 in the morning)
and it occurred to me while I was at work that I'll just use my left overs
(yup, left overs) fabric from last night
TO MAKE
A PIN CUSHION
Though it may sounds so oh-primary-school but I don't have a pin cushion yet
so, might as well
The Final result in my head contained these;
- The left over fabric from the pillow cover I made last night
- A cardboard tube, one of which I have no idea where it came from
- Pen and parer to make a pattern but this is optional
- Synthetic craft wool
- Measuring tape and scissors
- Optional decorating items, I chose the left over bit from the carry bag last night
- Rope or any thing to tie up the fabric
- HOT GLUE GUN!!! I also use thread and needle but hey... Up to you..
Let's begin!!
- First you have to make a pattern. One round piece to cover the top of the cardboard tube and a thick strip to cover the body of the tube. Make sure your fabric is wider so you can tie it later
- Sew the two pieces together from inside out then turn the right side out to make a tube-like cover. Like the picture above
- Then place it over the cardboard tube, make sure the circle sits on the top part perfectly
- You can now start stuffing!!!
- Cut the thread and tie the bottom tightly, and pull the excess fabric up along the tube
- Then You may decorate it with whatever you want, however you want. GLUE GUN TIME!!
