Fast Craft Wrist Pincushion


Wrist Pincushion
Originally uploaded by Green Kitchen.
This is probably the fastest craft I've ever done. In an old Woman's Day magazine I saw a sachet craft made of embroidered ribbon. Using the idea, I added the elastic wrist band--voila, instant wrist pincushion. I didn't add a cardboard backing like Claire at Needle Book did--thought I'd add a little danger to my craft.

Can't decide which is prettier -- the pincushion or the pins.

And I don't need no stinkin' cardboard back either. I live on the edge.

It looks like some kind of acupuncture-by-proxy. Or voodoo. Or acupuncture-by-voodoo. Which sounds like something we could start a clinic for and make a bunch of money.

Great idea! I love my cheapo old wrist cushion. It is so incredibly ugly though, and not nearly big enough. I'll try this.

Hello,
We've just made a little bundle of pincushions in the shape of owls.
Yours look wonderful!
cheers, lj
