Teacup Pin Cushions



I recently made these teacup pin cushions. I found the teacups an antique store in my neighborhood. Then I cut an old angora scarf into 2 squares (one for each cushion), made little balloons out of them, and filled each with stuffing. With embroidery floss I tied the balloons closed and cut off excess fabric. After that I drizzled craft glue into the bottoms of the cups and dropped the cushions in to set. They make such sweet little gifts for friends who like to sew.
