If you are anything like me, you have loads of fabric and probably more fabric scraps. I love anything that makes good use of the boxes of leftovers (I never throw anything away), such as these pincushions. They’re easy and cute and take about a half hour to make. The tutorial is over at The Purl Bee (the blog of the nice folks at Purl in New York). They’re really similar to yo-yos, another super-fun route for a bit of extra fabric. Special thanks to my nephew for the sidewalk chalk art.


Very cute!
