SUSIE ~ PINCUSHION CHALLENGE ENTRY POST #6 ~ Pincushion Jar

Re-Purposing a jar for a pincushion was a lot of fun and I may have to make several!
I placed a little cushion inside to hold special pins & needles. I am looking forward to seeing all the ideas for cushions here and I already see some really FAB-U-LOUS ones!

Pincushion Jar

I finished the pincushion for the challenge...and made changes along the way.
The first selection of fabric didn't work out like I envisioned. So I went with this pink piece and... Yes... I had it on hand :) The blue print was too big and I wasn't feeling it.
I used the cushion with band of fabric for my lid, glued the earring on and made another cushion for inside the jar. Now pearl pins can be stored inside, separate from others. I really enjoyed working on this and watching it evolve because I only knew I wanted to use the jar.
So, How is everyone else doing?
I hope you are having a creative day!
see you again soon, susie
