Would you like to create your very own version of our cute hedgehog pincushion?
This set includes PDF sewing patterns in three sizes (S, M, L), along with a 20-minute step-by-step video tutorial. Simply follow the video and enjoy the making process!
The pincushion is designed to be filled mainly with dried coffee grounds, which give it both a pleasant weight and natural rust-preventing qualities for your pins. A little polyester fiberfill is added to shape the hedgehog nicely. For those who prefer not to use coffee grounds, the tutorial also introduces an alternative method using plastic pellets (L size only).
