Last fall I saw some absolutely adorable pin cushions at the Houston show, but I remained strong and didn’t buy the pattern to make one. However, last month when I was in Phoenix and went to a sewing expo there, the same company was showing the pin cushions again. How could I resist? I mean, wasn’t it meant to be? I didn’t buy the pattern, though; I bought the kit in order to make life easy. I also bought a second little cup for the bottom, and I’m thinking I’m going to be making a second one of these very soon — though I’ll have to go look for the rest of the materials.
So what kind of pin cushion am I talking about? A cupcake! Isn’t it cute? 🙂 Sorry the photo is a little fuzzy, but you get the idea.
The pattern is called With a Cherry on Top. I’m beginning to think I have a pin cushion fetish. 😉

So cute! My girlfriend bought a kit for these at a local sewing and craft show. The kit was so cute packaged in a bakery box.
très joli! :o)
That is so cute!, I have pictures of some owl pincushions I made for my quild to sell at a fund raiser. 13 pair. see them at: http://tangledthreads-beads.blogspot.com/search/label/pincushion. I also have a crazy quilt pincusion posted in March 2010.
Susan, those owls are cute — they’re identical to the one my sister made me a few years ago (look at http://sandywf.blogspot.com/2010/02/more-embelllishing.html). Mine was such a hit at my local group that we all made them. 🙂
