Hi Rob, I made one of these and LOVE IT. I also made a matching pad for under my sewing machine for tools (Jenny Doan's tutuorial). Here are a couple of things I added to this pin cushion and thread catcher. 1) I sewed a rectangle approximately 3" x 4" in half and turned it inside out. Then I sewed the top of the rectangle to the tab between the pin cushion and the bag to make a flap of material so that I had a place for needles. Since needles don't have any tops like pins, they tended to disappear into the pincushion. 2) I slid a 16 oz solo cup into the bag to make it easier to empty the thread and fabric scraps. 3) I didn't have boning and had thrown all of the strapping from mailed packages away (ugh) so I cut up a gallon milk gallon into strips and it has worked well in place of the boning!. When I make the next one, 1) I am planning to put the walnut shells into a muslin bag and then into the pincushion sleeve because with a light colored fabric, the moving the pins in and out of the walnut shells discolored the pin cushion over time and 2) I will add a rectangle of plastic shelf liner to the bottom of the pin cushion or if I make a sewing machine pad with it, I'll add a little velcro to the bottom of the pin cushion and the sewing machine mat so that the pin cushion doesn't slide off the table.

Thank you so much for the tutorial. I was gifted about 100 pre-cut and pre-embroidered pin cushion when I bought some embroidery threads from an elderly lady 2 years ago. As I did not know how to sew one up and could not find an easy tutorial online, it was stuck in drawer for 2 years. Yesterday I decided to get serious and search some more on KZbin and found your one. So grateful, because I can eventually start sewing them to be in time for my Christmas market table in the mall. You are awesome!

I made one just like this but a much longer "hinge" and heavy pellets in the pincushion and gave it to my dad to use as a remote control holder!!! The hinge lies on the arm of his recliner with the weight resting on the inside of the chair, about where the cushion and the side meet. The bag rests along side with a few remotes in it. Perfect.

Rob,thanks for the great tutorial! Something else you can use in place of boning, is the straps used to bind lumber.

Keep us the great work! You are very much appreciated & loved.

For small items like this you can also cut boning from used round plastic food containers like butter, sour cream, etc. Works great. If you need a longer piece, just cut in a spiral.
@soul60s39 жыл бұрын
Rob, I love watching your videos. High energy, fresh ideas, and I love that you use simple everyday items (straps for boning). Repurposing is a GREAT thing. You can also insert 2 door hinges into the pin cushion before adding shells. It is added weight and lays flat. Sewing in a magnet on the top side of the pin cushion will be a great and convenient place for thread snips. I love someone's idea of the rubber shelf liner to prevent slipping. The possibilities are endless. Here is an out-of-the-box idea, using heavier "man" material, the pincushion instead is left open on both ends to slide a belt through. Attach to your belt when fishing. The catcher can hold worms either in a plastic bag or the plastic container the come in and outside pockets can hold a small folding knife (for cutting the fishing line) and anything else you want at your side so you don't have to go in the tackle box every time.
@gabrielbennett60795 жыл бұрын
Wow, that's a great idea soul60s3. I am planning out my tackle pouch even as I type. Thanks for the idea!! Here's an idea in turn: I bought a pack of mechanics gizmos at Walmart. There is a magnetic bowl, magnetic telescoping wand and my favorite, a grab-it wand that is about 2ft long. When I need to turn right sides out, I stick the grabber into the opening and push the button and a claw grabs and holds the fabric that needs to come back through the opening. Speeds up the process and then I used the telescoping wand to push corners out.

Looking around for other innovations to add to the sewing machine pad. I need to remember to leave room for the function of the machine and for me!

Bought something like this from a fellow sewer a few years ago and she used a tile at the top for weight and the pin cushion is attached with Velcro--to make it mobile and she lined the bag with vinyl to make it easier to empty but these are great to have. Easy to tuck into sewing bag to take with you.

I've always wanted to make one of these and now I can. I almost bought one on Etsy and decided not too because I have a lot of great fabric. Thanks! M👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

I love this so much and missed a class on this at my local guild but your video is so terrific I made myself one and another as a gift for my daughter in law. I added loops on hers and a magnet to hold a small scissors Great job

How did you attach the magnet?

Made two in the last couple of days - one for a friend and because it went so well, one for me! Thanks Rob. Edited to add for the pincushion I'm using ground corncob husks just in case people are allergic to nuts - as I intend to make a few more! And now my husband wants one to use (not sure what for, but I expect he'll find something!).

That's so awesome, Kerry! That's a great idea to sub out the crushed walnut shells for corncobs. I'm sure your husband will find his weighted pincushion very handy!

You made it look easier than I thought it would be. Thanks

I've made several and "stuffed" the pin cushion with sand. It was a bear to get the funnel gap sewed. On one when I had no boning, I used the rim of a cottage cheese carton lid. Someone had to be pretty special for me to make this though. I've bartered by exchanging sewing favors for them though. You are delightful.

Just finished two! One thing that I did differently was when connecting the two bags. I marked with a frixon pen the inch all the way around. It was easy to slide around the free arm and sew around that way.
