The finished results for my slice of cake pin cushion: Left a side view, Right a view from above. |
This pincushion is easy to sew and makes a charming gift! You can change the way it looks easily by using multiple colors.
Supply List:
- a variety of scrap ribbons
- white felt
- stuffing, the denser the better
- faux white fur that looks like fluffy icing
Step-by-Step Instructions:
- First, you will need to cut two long triangles the same size from felt for the top and bottom of the pincushion.
- Then cut a wide felt band to attach around the outside edges of both triangles from felt as well.
- Leave a small 1 inch opening to stuff the shape firmly with soft batting or lint from a dryer. Stuff the shape as tightly as possible without loosing it's general silhouette.
- Now attach the faux "icing" to the top and the back side of the cake slice with a whip stitch.
- The bottom of the cake will stay unadorned.
- Snip, and trim the layers of ribbon with hand-stitching on both sides of the cake.
