Learn how to make a quick no sew pincushion! Need a pincushion in a pinch? Try this easy no sew version. Out of all of the craft, crochet and sewing supplies I have on hand, I realized one day that I didn’t have a pincushion. I was just using the plastic box that my stick pins came in. I was going to make a sock monkey and decided that having a pincushion would make the process a little easier. I didn’t want to take the time to go out to buy one. I decided that I would make it without having to sew it by hand or run it through the sewing machine.

Things you will need:

coffee mug or tea cup

Place the cup on top of the fabric. You can take a pencil and freehand a circle about 2 inches bigger than the opening of the cup.  Cut the circle out. Put the fabric circle face down in the palm of your hand. Put the poly-fil in the center of the circle gather the ends together and twist.

You can hot glue the fabric ball to the cup now, if you want. I didn’t use the glue because I was using a piece of my good china.
