Tiny Scrap Fabric Pincushion Tutorial - English Paper Piecing and Hand Sewing

[@violet2048]

Thank you, Emma, this is the prettiest pincusion I've ever seen. I will try this one for sure as soon as I finish my grandbaby's quilt and his Mothers bed quilt. Your choices of fabric are so sweet, they remind me of cotton candy, and Easter.

[@emmajonesvintagesewingbox]

so glad you liked it Violet

[@karenkavanagh9372]

Hardwood saw dust is what fills pin cushions and a sturdy string attached to a little hexagon needle sharpener filled with Turkish sand would complete the perfect pin cushion.. its all about the 'filler' for the pins and needles and a way to keep them rustfree and sharp. This deisign using little hexagon English Paper Piecing is unique and eye pleasing pretty. Very well done! Thank you fot this totorial. 🪡🧵Sew On🧵🪡

Hi, I just found you, I am really enjoying watching. I am in the USA, eastern side. I have been so busy with emotional things for quite awhile and have not been able to do any sewing or knitting. Hopefully things have calmed down now and I can get back to doing my thing that “I” enjoy. You have been a great help to me, just watching. Thank you, will continue.

[@emmajonesvintagesewingbox]

Thank you so much. I hope you get back to sewing soon

Hi Emma...I just love this little pincushion so much! I bought some Liberty fabric and I’m already working on my EPP. I bought the fabric epp hexigons so I don’t have to take them out. Thank you so much for this video tutorial. I made the little scissor keeper a little while ago, and I just love it! It just gets more precious to me all the time! I’ve been learning how to quilt, but there’s just something so special and relaxing with hand stitching. You have such a beautiful voice and the music you play in the background is lovely! Thank you!
