My sewing progress continues, confirming that my new sewing category was not too hasty of a move.
This latest project is also from the Sew Everything Workshop book, my go-to sewing instruction book. And perhaps most exciting, this project features materials that I ordered from the Sew Everything Workshop author herself, via Diana Rupp's Make Workshop online store.
And the exciting outcome from this project - it organizes a critical sewing accessory, helping to cement me as a true sewist.
As one can tell from the above picture, this simple project (which turned into projects after I made the first one) is a simple pincushion, stuffed with polyfill.
I used some leftover cotton for the top of the pincushion and felt for the bottom. The pincushion was then accessorized with some embroidery floss for a polished look.
This project only requires one use of the sewing machine, to sew three edges of the top fabric to the back. The remaining edge is then hand-sewn using a slipstitch, which took me a few tries to understand and complete a clean-ish edge.
I am really pleased with how these pincushions turned out, and I can see myself making more in the future!
