Free pattern: Strawberry pincushion

Heather from shares a free pattern for making a strawberry pincushion. If you use a pink or red fabric with itty white polka dots, it’ll look like a real strawberry. But you can also throw caution to the wind and make them up in any kind of print or solid. It’s a great scrapbusting project.
