Well before I even buy my sewing machine I wanted to make myself a cute pin cushion!
So I found this tutorial on you tube, but I can't really remember the source! Sorry!
But it's very easy:
First you cut two circles out of the fabric of your choice, and with right sides together sew around it, leaving a gap so you can turn around and fill it with cushion fillings, or even cotton if you don't have the nice stuff.
After you fill it all, close the gap with a blind stitch.
Then you choose any color of embroidery floss to make the flower petals, just hand sew in and out of the cushion making first a cross and then 2 diagonals from that. So in the end you have 8 petals. In the middle you sew a button so you cover all the stitching, secure it nice with double knots in the back.
Here is the picture of mine:
It is very cute and useful!
