Sew crafty!

Today I made a pin cushion for my sewing machine. It actually took a lot more creative thinking that I would have expected. The inside consists of layers of felt on top of a thick strap. The fabric was then sewn around that and the ends were fastened with the ribbon. The difficult part was getting the fabric tight around the felt, but I sewed the fabric, then stuffed the felt inside. Overall, I am very pleased with the outcome and I think it makes a cute and useful addition to my machine!
