French Knots Embroidered Hearts Pincushion

Today Heather from the Sewing Loft is joining us to share a free tutorial for a French Knot Embroidered Pin Cushion.  

French Knots Embroidered Pin Cushion Tutorial by the Sewing Loft

I adore pin cushions. I don’t think I have enough of them and I don’t think that I make enough of them either. They are the perfect quick sewing project and there are so many fun variations that you can make.

Heather from the Sewing Loft made this version for our Summer Sewing Series that is decorated with a heart made of french knots. If you’ve not embroidered a french knot before, don’t worry. They are pretty simple once you know the trick.

Hop on over to her site to get the FULL TUTORIAL.

  • I guess it’s time to transition the IG feed from orange to red 😉. Let’s talk Christmas crafting! 🎅🏼 🌲. I’m working with @officialcricut this holiday season to bring you loads of fun personalized gift ideas. First up this “believe” wood Christmas sign with 3D wood cut out. It was my first time to cut wood with my Cricut Maker and I’m so excited that it actually worked! 🙌🏻🙌🏻 It took a bit of trial and error but it worked! On the blog I’ve outlined how I did it , along with a few tips if you try it yourself. Just use the link in my bio then go to the home page. #cricutmade #cricutmaker #christmascrafts #handmadechristmas #handmadechristmasdecorations
  • Happy Halloween Witches! 🎃🎃🎃 Hope your day is full of fun and not too many scares! Photo is from a few years ago when the kids were little and we did things like carve pumpkins, and dress in matching costumes. Might still carve the pumpkins tonight and break out the hat - we will see 😉
  • Hi guys! I’m very sad to be #missingmarket right now! The timing wasn’t great for me to go and I’m missing all of my friends right now. A few of you have asked and I do have a fabric line releasing in 2020. There aren’t any samples at market (usually Riley Blake doesn’t show samples of holiday lines at market) but I wanted to let you know to look out for it if you’re there ordering fabric! 🎅🏼 🎄 It’s called Santa Claus Lane and it’s inspired by my collection of vintage Christmas linens and postcards. (And that Hilary Duff song 😉🎼I )I wanted to design a Christmas line with a fresh and bright feel and am really excited with how it turned out. There are 21 prints (with Mr and Mrs Claus ‘cause we all know who does most of the work at Christmas 🤶🏻) and 2 panels with the line. One for pillows/quilts and one for stockings. The line will hit stores in May 2020 and I’m thinking a little Christmas in July celebration will be in order then. 🎄🎅🏼🤶🏻. . . #quiltmarket2019 #rileyblakedesigns #christmasfabric #polkadotchair #melissamortenson
  • Asking for a friend: “How many Halloween quilts is too many?” 😂🎃👻🍁. Pulled out my #tictaccatquilt for a little Fall photo shoot this week. Pattern linked in shop. . . . #halloweenquilt #polkadotchair #melissamortenson #rileyblakedesigns #quiltsofinstagram
  • Be still by Disney loving heart! Holly from @makervalley lugged her #HalloweenHaberdashery quilt with her to Disneyland for the cutest photo shoot! She featured my pattern in this months Maker Valley Quilt Subscription box and I’m so honored! (I’m pretty sure there are a few more boxes left if you want to snag one info on her IG). ✂️✂️✂️ In other news! I’m back from a week at sea and I feel a bit weak in the knees! Fighting off a bit of lingering vertigo from the bomb cyclone that decided to visit our cruise ship off the coast of Nova Scotia! I know I’ve got lots of IG tags and cute projects made with Chloe and Friends fabric to catch up on. Just give me a day to make the room stop moving 😂😂😂. If you’re curious - cruise highlights are saved on my IG profile under travel bubble. Quilt pattern can be found in my shop. Just use the link in my bio.
  • Dear Maine, nobody likes a show-off. 😉. . . Just kidding, show off all you want. ❤️🍁🍁
