- Happy Tutorial Friday!!
In today's video, I show how to make a super-easy and utterly adorable petal pincushion!
With this pattern, you are free to make your pincushion as big or as small as you like depending on the size of the circular object you choose to trace around!
PS. Don't forget to send me a photo of your finished pincushions! All of my social media places are listed below!
MATERIALS LIST:
- Suitable amount of cotton fabric, depending on how big you want to make your pincushion. The fabric I use is DS Quilts, Daisy Mae collection.
- x1 large button with two holes in a colour of your choice
- 80" of DMC Pearle Cotton thread in colour of choice
- x1 Straws needle in size no.1 (or any other type of strong hand sewing needles)
- Hand full of polyester stuffing
- Scissors: Thread snips, Fabric scissors and Pinking Sheers
- Lead pencil
- x1 small hand sewing needle and matching thread
- Chop stick
- Sewing Machine
- Dressmaking pins
- Something round to trace around eg. Jam jar lid, tin lid, plate etc.
Follow the steps in the video to learn how to make a Petal Pincushion.
FINAL SIZE: My pincushion measures 3" (8cm).
This petal pincushion has been inspired and adapted from a pattern in a booklet that came with issue 52 of Mollie Makes magazine.

Thanks for watching!! xx
I think crushed walnut shells would be a good alternative. Heavier. I've made a few square 4.5" pin cushions with the crushed walnut shells and they give the cushion some weight. 😊
This looks so easy! I just got a sewing machine and was looking around for a pin cushion tutorial, watching this gave me the idea to make them orange and pumpkin shaped. Now I'm going to make a few for some beginner practice. Hopefully they turn out well enough to give as Christmas gifts. Thanks!
That is so cute. It would make a lovely top on a gift package instead of a bow. Very creative.
+Catherine Eddy What a wonderful idea!!
started learning to sew, dont know why i waited, the possibilities are exciting, i want to use this design to make a sort of chair, something a little nicer looking than a bean bag
I saw one like this in a fabric store but with an elastic wristband. I wanted to make my own. Adorable! Thank you 💞
how lovely. thank you so much for posting. it's amazing how good those fabrics look as pincushions. they look like little bonbons!
Just ordered my first ever machine and this will be y first ever make! Thank you, will keep on watching your vids
Thank you for sharing! This is what I’ve been looking for! A cute and convenient pincushion for travelling! God bless you!
My young grandchildren love my sewing room but especially my pins & buttons. I wanted to make a few pincushions for them to play with & this looks like my perfect first pincushion project, plus, I have some very cute buttons. Thanks for the tips with the knots too. Nicely done video.
+Jeanette Schnell That sounds like a great idea!! Have fun making them! :)
Beautiful... I recently purchased a pin cushion bummer I didn’t know it was such a simple project.
So easy and quick to make !!
Thanks for this short but clear demo!!
added an elastic band and now i have a cute pin cushion to wear on my wrist! thank you for he tutorial!
+Lakayla Smith What a fab idea! Thanks for sharing! :)
+Lakayla Smith - Thanks for sharing your idea! I plan to use this video and your idea in my sewing workshops with my students!
I just made two of these. One is black and white checks with red thread and a black button. The other is light green polka dot with hot pink thread and a white button. Now, I've got one for pins and one for needles.They turned out well, thanks to the excellent video and skilled demonstrator. I didn't have the right kind of stuffing, so I used shredded foam instead. The stuffing used in the video would have been better, but there's an explosion of covid-19 cases here, and I'm not going anywhere!
So very cute, and easy to make. Thanks for posting.
SO CUTE! I am making my daughter a pin cushion using fabric from baby clothes. I just bought her first sewing machine and she is a wonder seamstress! Thanks for the video!
Hi, I really like your teaching style. Your presentations have been well thought out and executed. I especially appreciate the close up imaging of each project as you make it! Many tutorials have too much face time.
Love your smile. Virginia in Ohio
This is so pretty and you did a great explanation many thanks Jackie
Super cute! Thanks!
so lovely. .thank you. .
Your explanation is awesome
I just finished making this! It was my very first attempt at a craft project (and that's noticable haha). I might make another now I know how to make them. Thanks for making the video!
+Vanya Boon That's great, well done to you!! We all have to start somewhere! :)
Super cute
Super easy
Thanks Amanda !
I'll think I have to make it for my own 😊😊♥
These are so lovely. They make me happy.
Best pin cushion I’ve had!

Great and easy pincusion and tutorial. Thanks! For sharing.
Thank you so much! :)
Lovely cute pin cushions Amanda :) I've made these before and to be sure I centred all the sections, I wrapped the thread into half then quarters etc.
Cute, cute, cute! Another winner, thanks for sharing.
I found your page about a week or so ago... and have subscribed & watched TONS of your videos. Will definitely be making several projects. This one is SEW CUTE!!!! Love our accent... thank you for sharing your talent w/ other sewers!
+Amy McQueen Thank you so much! Welcome to my channel! :)
Beautiful tutorial, very relaxing and encouraging to do esp for a beginner like myself who hasn't anyone I can learn from. Ty!
These are so cute, I will make some for the church bazaar. thank you so much.
+Jan Rogers You're more than welcome, Jan! Best of luck with your church bazaar! :)

12-3-16 Quick and easy. I will make an extra large cushion. I will use a small plate as
a template. Thanks
This is a lovely pattern! I did it patchwork and stuffed it with cabbage, so it was a great scrap buster! Never buying a pincushion again hahaha
Simple and beautiful! Thank you so much for posting this tutorial
Amanda a couple years ago I needed a pincushion and I saw your DIY video so I tried it and it ended up being sort of like Goldy Locks! Each one I made was two small. By the time I got done I had 3 pincushions and somehow a lightbulb went on and I decided to stack them up. I put a stretch band on the small one so you can wear it on your wrist but it also holds the stack together. And so the Pum-Pin-Cushion was born all from this little video. I started selling them on Etsy and I really enjoy making them. Thanks for the video.
Yay, I love this! I'm so glad my little tutorial helped to inspire you! 💕
Thank you so much for sharing. Can't wait to try to my hand at making these adorable pincushions.
Lovely tutorial thanks so much 🍒
Bellissimo🥰, grazie, cara, Dio ti benedica nella Divina Volontà🙂
thanks for sharing your ideas
Adorable! And I love your tin, I have a Singer reproduction tin of the same design, different shape, and gosh I must've bought it twenty years ago. Isn't that just so neat to have and make these things that make sewing more fun? I'm off to make a pincushion and dig through my grandmother's button collection!
+Stitch Wishes I'll always love a good novelty tin or sewing notion to use in my sewing room! Pincushions included! Enjoy making yours! :)
So cute!
Nicely done , very pretty !
so beautiful
Once again another great video. Love your choice of fabrics and buttons, adorable. Thanks.
+Star Brown Thank you!!! :)
Beautiful
detailed clean and easy
thanks for nice tutorial
How cute!!! So easy to make aswell!
Yay!! Going to make one right now!! I'm getting ready to move across the country so I'm in a mad rush of sewing before I pack away my sewing machine! :-)
Thanks. It's a very clear tutorial. Other options might be to use an invisible seaming stitch to close the cushion, to put a button on the back side too so it is a reversible kind of thing. or to fit an elastic wristband like european pin cushions.
Love these, thanks Amanda
Adorable! Thanks, Amanda!
they look great, good job!
Really good! Thanks for sharing!

this look more cuter and neater rather than the cupcake version and plus its easyy. will sure do this diy though😍
Super cute!! I've wanted to know how to make these little pin cushions.
+pomomary I've always wanted to know how to make them as well! As soon as I saw how easy they were to make, I couldn't stop!! :)
you made that look so easy..great job
Lovely
I like it ! 👍easy to do.☺💜
Really nice! I was thinking of making one with a stem shape in the center instead. It would make a pumpkin.
they are to cute
Amanda, I love your videos! Great projects. Thanks for the inspiration! Happy sewing. 🦋💕
Very cute idea❤
Such a helpful tutorial and ur voice is so clear & lovely 😍. I just made one, it’s very cute 🥰 thanks!
So cute 👍
I can’t wait to make them. Thank you
That looks so lovely!! Thanks for posting. I just got my very first sewing machine, and I was looking at pin cushions then wondered if it would be easy to make. This looks like it would be great for a first project!
+Shiblets That's so great to know!! Best of luck making - I'm sure you'll do a fantastic job! :)
Thank you!
OH! I had a question -- You use the flat flower head pins (or something similar) -- Is there a difference between using those and say.. glass head pins? Or is it just a preference?
+Shiblets It's more just a preference. I like using flat headed pins as they stay flat against the surface of the fabric and are easier to grab when mid-sewing. My advice for you would be to use whatever you feel comfortable and confident in using. :)
Ok, thank you! I'm a very indecisive person, but I will take a look at both when I finally get to a craft store :)
Adorable
These are so cute! I currently love to use my Grabbit magnetic pin cushion but these are so cute I may just have to make a few just to have around. Love the way you made the little petals. Have a great weekend!
