Looking for a few ideas for your holiday gift-giving projects that you can make yourself? But you don't have lots of extra time or money? Here is a fun little pincushion that you can make with items your either already have on hand, or that you can pick up very inexpensively at your local thrift shop.
One of these sweet little teacup pincushions would make the perfect gift for your mom, grandma, sister, cousin, friend .... for any one of the special women in your life! Even if this special girlfriend isn't much of a seamstress, these pincushions are a delightful addition to any desktop or dresser, to hold earrings, pins, necklaces, rings or any other other little "stuff" that gets tossed up there.
All of these beautiful pincushions are created from lovely teacups and saucers that were discovered on my thrift shop adventures, and then with a little bit of fabric and ribbon, a few beads and buttons, a hot glue gun, and some extra-long straight pins, these lonely little teacups have been resurrected into gorgeous gifts for the holidays!
If you would like to make your own teacup pincushion, just leave a comment below and I will send the eBook off to you today ;o)
Also, in addition to the eBook on how to make these delightful teacup pincushions, I will include the tutorial on making the elegant stick pins that you can make to include with the pincusion for your gift-giving this holiday season.
Super simple . .. . really quick and easy .. . . and these little pincushions will fit just about anyone's budget!
And if you are looking for more eBook patterns to guide you along the way in making the most of your sewing skills in creating clothing for your children, please visit my Etsy shop, mamas*little*treasures where you'll find lots of great ideas to inspire YOUR creative spirit!
I love tea cups and pincushions! I would be thrilled to receive the eBook! Thanks so much!

I love teacups. There was a lady who use to say each woman was a teacup, each dainty and unique, fragile but remarkably sturdy. I would love your pattern to make one.
