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.

  • Returning home from Salt Lake City today where I had the privilege to teach at #gardenofquilts ! It’s been a crazy 6 weeks for us and it turns out that 3 days of connecting with fellow Makers was just what I needed! I taught two classes and hosted a trunk show where I chatted about Holiday sewing projects. Thanks for having me @rileyblakedesigns ! Can’t wait for next year. Also - yes my eyes get very tiny when I smile big and I didn’t take nearly enough photos 🤣. #quiltersofinstagram #quiltsinthewild
  • Sharing a tutorial to make these sweet little embroidery hoop baskets over on BERNINA’s WeAllSew blog! They are crazy fast to make. I’ve included instructions to make them in two different sizes. Something tells me I might have to make a giant one at one point too 😉. To find the tutorial click the link in my bio then go to the home page. Link is under “7small sewing projects post”. . . . #foxfarmfabric #rileyblakedesigns #sewingtutorial #sewistsofinstagram #sewingproject
  • Hi All!! I know it’s been super quiet here the last few weeks but I literally have not had a free moment to look at insta let alone post anything. . In fact, I couldn’t even find a recent photo of myself to use for this post so I grabbed an old fav from our last Disney trip. . After a week up in the mountains of Utah I moved two kids out of apartments and one into an apartment and am now unexpectedly driving all the way across the US of A with 2/3rds of my kiddos. . I’ve got an autoresponder on my email but if I’m slow to get back to you this is why. Hope you all are enjoying what’s left of your summer vacation. See you on the flip side ❤️ (All is well. Just busy. 😊)

  • Did you know it’s actually pretty easy to sew a bow tie? I stitched up this one for my husband to wear to the Kentucky Oaks a year ago. It only took a couple of hours!

Just click the link in my bio and then type “bow tie” into the search box. . . #rileyblakedesigns #rileyblake #quiltersofinstagram #sewcialist #sewingproject #sewists #derbydayfabrics
