TASTER: Make a Cupcake Pincushion with Mandy Shaw
FREE Tasters (Quilting) • Educational, G, 13-Dec-2019
This pincushion is fun and easy to make. Mandy takes you through all the stages including using the ladder stitch to product invisible joins.

The top of the pincushion is like a big suffolk puff. Again, Mandy has some handy tips on how to ease out the wrinkles.
