My Mom and I love to sew, and since Christmas was coming up, so I wanted to sew her something really special, so I went looking on Youtube for an interesting idea she could use in her sewing room. I found this beautiful cross stitch mini Pincushion pillow video tutorial by Lori Holt, on YouTube, that could make beautiful pincushions. If you sew, you completely understand that we seamstresses collect a lot of pins, glass pins plastic round headpins, headpins, etc…  The list goes on and on, so a variety of pincushions makes perfect sense!  This cross stitch mini pincushion that I found on Youtube was so gorgeous, I knew my Mom was going to love it. I already had a piece of vintage cross stitching and a few gorgeous antique buttons I bought from an antique fair in Fredricksburg, Texas that was perfect for the project. I started by getting my materials together.

Materials For The Cross Stitch Mini Pincushion Pillows:

• fabric
• pattern download
• buttons
• cotton thread
• thread snips
• fabric scissors
• a handful of polyester stuffing
• a few fabric pins
• a chopstick (or corner stick)

Directions:

In this beautiful cross stitch mini Pincushion pillow video tutorial by Lori Holt, on YouTube, you will learn how to make these beautiful little pincushion pillows in a few easy steps. You begin by making the cross stitch square, then attaching it to the backing.

Then you will just follow the excellent instructions in the video tutorial by Lori Holt, and your mini pillow project will be ready in no time!
