TASTER: Biscornu Pincushion with Carolyn Forster
FREE Tasters (Quilting) • Educational, G, 09-Aug-2019
This is a truly delightful little project and Carolyn shows us how quick and easy it is to make. She uses two simple squares, but this is also a project that allows you to use up old left-over blocks and jelly roll strips. Equally, you can just fussy-cut from more dramatic fabrics for a different effect.
Carolyn is holding the 9-patch and velveteen pincushion in the thumbnail. This one is featured in her book 'Sew Jelly Roll Quilts & Gifts' which you can find on our website.
