7 options for stuffing a pincushion

If you’re looking for a quick but satisfying project to make, may I suggest a pincushion?  There are plenty of sewing patterns and tutorials available to make a pincushion any way you could imagine.  You also have a choice in how you stuff them.  Poly-fil is the most common, but there are other options too.  Heather fromThe Sewing Loft looks at 7 materials you can use to fill your pincushions.  Go to her blog to read all about them!

Sewing Pincushions are also called Emery Bag as they contain Emery powder and oxide iron that removes rust from pins and needles. Emery pinch cushions can be bought here.

Sewing Pattern – DIY Beach Towel Bag

If you are like me you want an easy way to carry your towel and a few items to the beach but don’t want a bag just to hold those things.

So I came up with the idea to make a beach towel bag. This way it is a bag that can hold a few items but also function as your towel. I love it! I share with you how you can make your own beach towel bag.

This is an easy sewing project that is perfect for summer! I even made a few for my kids so they each have their own. Start sewing this fun bag today.

Sewing pattern: Mesh beach bag
Sewing pattern: Beach bag with a mesh pocket
