Karen from Sew Many Ways shows how to make this cute little pincushion, using a napkin ring for the base. Brilliant!! She shares a tutorial showing how to do it. Most of us have a napkin ring (or 4 or more) floating around the house, not getting used. So why not turn them into pincushions? You can also find them easily at rummage sales and thrift stores, and in a wide variety of styles. Go to Sew Many Ways to see how to use a napkin ring to make a pincushion.
