Pincushion - Stuffing

1. Stuff pincushion as firmly as possible.  I prefer to use Natural Cotton Stuffing because you can get the cushion very firm, which makes it nicer to use.

2. Pull thread taut, tie off end of thread.  (Note: your pincushion will not be completely closed).

Fill with steel wool to sharpen pins and needles as you insert and withdraw them from the cushion.

This was really easy and FUN to make!!! I think I might be able to adapt it for the children that I work with. They'd get a kick out of it! Thanks!!!
