♥ Magic Wrist Pincushion! ♥

♥Hi!

Here's a cute wrist pincushion I made the other day from an old embroidery. It looks like a magical girl tool but, since sewing for me is magic, it IS indeed a magical tool.♥

There was this unfinished embroidery on denim made a while a go lying around. So I cut around it leaving the seam allowance. For the back I used a silver faux leather material and mirrored the heart shape. Filled it with wool scraps and sewn all around it, folding over the denim as I went. For the wrist band I measured out my wrist circumference and cut elastic to this length. Inserted the elastic in a tube I made from sparkly silver fabric and sewn a loop. Then attached to the back of the heart. Finished all off with pink lace trim and voilà! 

Making this was a perfect stress releiver, I've been so busy with dayjob and custom orders that I really needed to make something cute for myself. This will hopefully encourage me to get back to sewing more often♥
