Something I've been making as of late. Some folks asked for one in comments and in flickermail, so here you go. Best viewed in the Slidehow...
I use pearl cotton AKA "craft thread", you can find it next to the embroidery floss, and also can buy 24 or 36 skein bags of many colors for like $4-5 at michaels, which is cheaper than the $1.35 a (bigger) skein costs otherwise.
You can decorate with trim or beads (I don't because i rather like them more grippable), but I wouldn't use beads on top, the pins might catch on them. What good is a pincushion if you can't put a pin in it?
Overall these take 15 min or less to make, time well spent and as much as I hate to say it, cute as a button!
Shot this with a 2003 Minolta S414, if anyone is curious. Me loves me macro! 30 photos | Detail view 30 comments Photos are from
