Frame Pin Cushion

I used tiny decorative wood frames to make these cute DIY pin cushions! Pair the frames with colorful and fun fabric scraps and these little cuties scream personality! Plus they sit flat and sturdy in place. Oh, and did I mention they are super easy to make?!

 

Yep, these little frame  pincushions are my newest craft kit! The kit includes 3 tiny unfinished wood frames and chipboard backing. The batting is optional so for those who already have batting or choose to use the frames as….frames, they can! how to make pin cushion

Look how cute they are! Your sewing friends will go nuts over these cuties! Wrap them up in cellophane with some bakers twine and a little gift tag and you have a fantastic handmade gift.

How to Make a Pin Cushion

supplies: tiny wood frame with chipboard backing, paint, batting, fabric

DIY pin cushion

  1. Paint the wood frame using 2-3 coats of paint. {I used spray paint}
  2. Place the frame with the face down and place a 4″x5″ piece of fabric {scraps are perfect!} on top of the frame with right side down.
  3. Fold a 6″x8″ piece of batting into a small rectangle and insert where the opening in the frame is.
  4. Pull the edges of the fabric to pull out some of the wrinkles. pin cushion craft
  5. Fold over the edges of the fabric and place the chipboard on top to conceal the raw edges, then fold over the metal tabs to secure in place.

*Tip from Alicia on Craftaholics Anonymous Facebook page: Use magnetic paint to help catch stray pins!
