French Knots Embroidered Hearts Pincushion

2 · Aug 9, 2016 · 3 Comments

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

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.
