Today’s feature is from Sew Mama Sew with this tutorial for a Weighted Pincushion Organizer:

This sturdy pincushion has plenty of space to store pins and a wool felt strip for your needles. The hanging pocket is a perfect place for storing easily-misplaced tools like seam rippers, embroidery scissors and thread snips, and the detachable scrap bag helps keep stray threads and clippings from littering your workspace.

Because the pincushion is weighted with uncooked rice, it can perch just as easily on the edge of a table or the arm of a chair or sofa!

Great little organizer for sewing and needlework projects! For a treat, try filling the bag with some dried lavender (along with the rice or filler that you choose), you’ll get a pleasant little waft of fragrance whenever you use the pincushion.

Please visit the site above for all the details, there’s a handy pdf pattern download towards the bottom of the page that you can save to your computer. Nice project!

  1. That is really a neat idea. I love to make pincushions. My last pincushion was a felt hat .
