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

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!
