Whimsy Wednesday: Woven Pin Cushion

Today we start making a woven pin cushion. I also show you Clara’s bird and my birthday gift to myself.

When you have finished weaving your ribbons, the pins should be holding down the loose edges. Be sire your ribbons are snug against each other without gaps but not overlapping.

Materials for woven pin cushion:

  • 4″×4″ lining fabric – muslin, scrap print
  • 2 3″×4″ backing fabrics – silk, pretty print
  • Ribbon 1/4″ to 3/4″ would be best. The narrower the ribbon, the more you will need. For 1/2″ ribbon, 1 yard of 2 different colors will work.
  • Wadding/batting or cut up cabbage
  • Needle and thread

In the next video, we will tack down the loose ends and attach the backing.
