What a charming craft you made out of the sewing machine pin cushions. I bet you could sell them in shops, or even from your home if you displayed them in a front window! You'd be doing nothing but the pin cushions if you ever put the idea out there! God bless you and your household. : )
I kept thinking I'm doing something wrong because they look awesome intricate, difficult and fiddly but they are just awesome and a bit fiddly.. I had fun making these, hope you do too.
Oh my goodness they are adorable ❤ I was a crafter for many years, if I may make a suggestion? As ur gluing this material in place could u take a small piece of cardboard circle as a base b4 u glue the material in? This acts as a base b4 gluing the sewing machine to ur square base
Yeeeeeah fantastic, really glad you had a go & as you said they are pretty easy, just a tad fiddly to make but most things that small are fiddly aren’t they. I love the way you decorated them, hadn’t thought to use the gold embroidered appliqué type stuff but it’s so effective. A little tip that might help you is before you seal the bottom part of the machine up add a little bit of cardboard to help shape it and glue your material to that. Not sure if you got my reply to the “swap” question you asked on my video as I’ve not heard from you but didn’t want to moider you in case you weren’t well or something....it’s ok if you don’t need/want to swap now though, I don’t mind at all as I’m pretty busy at the moment anyway, just let me know :) As you’re enjoying them why not make a few more and put them in your Etsy shop, they do usually sell as I’ve sold a few myself, try them at around £6 - £8 and see how they do. Oh and some of mine are more stable than others and I think it’s down to how much they’re stuffed, not certain about that though. Anyway, have a great weekend. Ann x
Will make a Lonestar just for you, same colour or do you want different?. E mail me your address, or I can put it on my Etsy shop at a very reduced price but will let you know before its listed so only you get it.
Little Urban Homestead thank you, you’re so kind, I’ll accept your generous offer but please be sure to send me your address too so that once I’ve got more time I can send you something in return. I’m not on Facebook or any other social media...just on here and I don’t know your email so I’ll leave mine here for you to contact me first. I do like the quilt you showed so if that’s still available it will be fine as we have a bedroom in those shades but in case it’s not and if you have material in grey shades or patterns coupled with white that would be awesome as we are decorating a bedroom in shades of grey and white, please don’t go out and buy anything special though, use what you have and I’m sure it’ll be fabulous in whatever colours you choose. The only colour I don’t get along with is bright orange so none of that if possible..lol. Speak to you soon. 😃
I have decided to keep the brown lonestar as a reminder that at first things may seem really bad but they can work out in the end. Just gone through my stash and found some fat quarters in blacks and white so gonna see what I can come up with, might get some of it on video for a fabric friday.
Little Urban Homestead no worries, I just replied to your email so I’ll delete my address from here now. Black and white sounds good and it will match with grey perfectly well. Have fun with it & don’t worry I don’t expect perfection, will keep a lookout for a video too :) Ann x
Wow. You are so clever. Thank you for showing us how to do that. xx
It's a pleasure. I was surprised myself how easy these are to make.
They're beautiful! Thanks for sharing!
good day to you Liz !! these are absolutely fan-flippin-tastic

Lovely to hear from you. I have put a few for sale on my Etsy shop, but I've had enough of them for now.
I think it's very pretty but I'm not into lace. Some lace strips around the rectangle just not flounce around it
These are fantastic, thank you for sharing I can't wait to make one.
