Weighted Pincushion Organizer

This sturdy pincushion has plenty of space to

store pins and a wool felt strip for your needles.

The hanging pocket is a perfect place for storing

easily-misplaced tools like seam rippers,

embroidery scissors and thread snips, and the

detachable scrap bag helps keep stray threads

and clippings from littering your workspace.

Because the pincushion is weighted with

uncooked rice, it can perch just as easily on the

edge of a table or the arm of a chair or sofa!

Supplies List

You will need three coordinating fabrics, cut as follows:

Fabric A:

9” x 14” for Scrap Bag Lining

5” x 5” for Pincushion Top

Fabric B:

5” x 5” for Pincushion Top

Fabric C:

9” x 14” for Scrap Bag Exterior

2 1/2” x 9” for Scrap Bag Facing (cut two from fabric and two from fusible interfacing)

3” x 10 1/2” for Pincushion Bottom (cut two)

You will also need:

Lightweight Fusible Interfacing, cut as described above

9” Flannel Square for Weight Bag

2 1/2” x 5” piece of Wool Felt for Pincushion Top

Polyester Fiberfill*

1 1/4 Cups Uncooked Rice*

1” Button

Disappearing Ink Marker (or similar)

*Opinions vary on how best to stuff and weight pincushions. These materials work well for me. If you don’t like them, don’t

hesitate to substitute your own preferred materials. Just keep in mind that whatever you use for weight should be heavy

enough to keep your pincushion in one place .

Making the Scrap Bag

Keeping right sides together, fold your Scrap Bag

Exterior in half, matching short ends. Use a 1/2” seam

allowance to close both sides. Repeat with Scrap Bag

Lining, but using a 5/8” seam allowance.

Clip bottom corners (near the fold) of Scrap Bag Exterior

and press side seams open. Repeat with Lining.

Open up one bottom corner of Scrap Bag Exterior to a

point, as shown above. Measure 1 ½” from the point

and use a disappearing ink marker to draw a stitching

line perpendicular to the seam, as shown above.

Stitch along the line you’ve drawn and trim corner, as

shown above. Repeat with the other bottom corner of

Scrap Bag Exterior and the two bottom corners of Scrap

Bag Lining.

You should now have two bag-shaped pieces. Place

them with bottoms together, as shown, and baste or

zigzag stitch together the corner seam allowances.

(This will hold lining in place.)

Turn so the Exterior is on the outside and the Lining is on

the inside. Baste or zigzag stitch together the raw edges

around the top of the bag.

Iron Fusible Interfacing pieces to the wrong side of both

Scrap Bag Facing pieces. Placing right sides together,

sew the newly interfaced Facing pieces together along

the short ends, using a ½” seam allowance and creating

a closed loop.

Press seam allowances open. Turn up the bottom of the

Facing pieces by about ½”, as shown above, and press.

Fit Scrap Bag Facing onto Scrap Bag, as shown above,

matching raw edges around the top of the bag. Line up

side seams, pin in place, and sew together using a ½”

seam allowance.

Turn Facing to the inside and press. Stitch Facing near

the bottom edge, securing it to bag. Center and sew your

button to the Facing, as shown.

The Scrap Bag can be used on it’s own or hung

from the loop on the Pocket Panel, using the button.

Keeping right sides together, fold Pocket Panel, matching

short ends. Sew both long sides, using a ¼” seam

allowance. Clip corners, turn right-side-out and press.

Bring the bottom (folded) edge up 3 ½” inches, creating a

close to the edge (about 1/8”).

Stitch pocket dividers as desired, backstitching at the

beginning and end of each row of stitching to secure.

Iron interfacing onto your Loop piece and fold in half,

keeping wrong sides together, as shown above.

Fold and press both long sides to the middle, as shown

above.

Topstitch around all sides and fold Loop as shown above.

Stitch in place across the long side of the folded triangle.
