    I used to work in a dementia unit and one of the residents would make these....her daughter would cut them out and she would do the stitching. They turned out perfect every time. In the end, they were put into a quilt for each of her grandchildren❤ I enjoyed this video thoroughly 😊

    That was fun. I went ahead and ordered yet another tool, Yo-Yo maker in 5 sizes. I finally got a sewing room about 7 years ago. I had kept all the tools and gadgets in a box in the closet. Now my sewing room is starting to overflow, and it's my favorite room in the house.

      Oh you have got to make a pincushion. I have only made two this being my second. There is nothing more rewarding using pins from the pin cushion that you made.

    I love hearing the history of the tomato pin cushions. I also like that you had Peter there trying it and making it with you. I think its great seeing someone make it, that hasn't done it before.
    I was cross stitching while I was watching it, and I am making ugly knots every time I start a new thread. 😊 When I know that it is going to be stuffed, I don't worry about having knots. I am making a drum with a pattern from Notforgotten Farm.

A UA-camr gave me a channel to watch and then you popped up. I have a tart tin I mY convert to a pin cushion. Have a wonderful day!

    Dawn is such a fun teacher! I love watching and listening to her, even though I don't partake in the making. Peter, you're a great student! I'm pretty sure you guys answered my question I posted on IG about if I wanted to use the crushed walnut shells to put in my cross stitch finishes. I don't want the oils to leach out into the fibers of my pieces, even if they're not going to be handed down to anyone when I'm gone. I'll just avoid that mess. 🍅

      Wendy, I am enjoying watching and listening to your flosstube. I am so happy you are doing them. I have been reading your comments on our videos for several years. I always enjoy reading your thoughtful comments. Dawn asked me if I wanted to make a pincushion in her video. I thought it would be fun to make on on camera. I saw how fast Dawn was stitching so I knew I had to pick up the pace. Dawn is so good at teaching. On a side note, I am going to need to have you start cutting out shapes for Birdie's year lol. Wool is so fabulous to work with and I think you will really enjoy the process.

      @@alwaysinstitches5388 Just think that was your first pincushion. The next will be faster if you make another. I saw your marching orders here earlier 😆 and I hopped to it - I have traced, cut out my pattern, and after I return home I will iron my fusible on and cut out my wool. Perhaps if I had more people giving me orders/demands/commands regarding my crafts, I would get more done. 😄😄 And I love watching and listening to you all! I would have to do a weekly mandatory shopping trip to the store if I lived nearby!
