I made this today. Bookmarked the tutorial a long time ago but decided that today is the day.
Thank you Ayumi for the tute.
Two days ago, I made this. It’s a pincushion caddy!!! See all the pins ?!
It’s from a book Seams to Me by Anna Maria Horner. I have not seen the book but saw a picture of the caddy in Flickr. My first thought was “ it looks like a ball..a ball with a hole in the centre! ”
So, I googled for a ‘fabric ball pattern’….. and there were ‘About 2,140,000 results (0.19 seconds)’ !
After I printed the pattern, I put on my thinking cap …..
….Ta~ Da ! I made it without the book !!!
Perfect sewing companion!
Question: Will I be infringing copyright if I make a tutorial for the pincushion caddy?

I simply adore the pincushion caddy!!!! I am always losing my scissors or my seam picker or everything else. To do a tutorial you could probably add something to it to make it your own...like a bottom? I would love to see how you did this!
ReplyDeleteCute caddy! I'd love a tutorial!
ReplyDeleteWhat're you gonna put in that pretty basket? :)
Wow! Both turned out great! The pincushion/caddy is a great way to keep track of the tools of the trade.
ReplyDeleteI love the pincushion with the hole for all your bits of sewing stuff. Super cute!
ReplyDeleteFun creations. I also bookmarked the basket a while ago. Thanks for the reminder. I really do want to make one.
ReplyDeleteVery Cute! I need to add this project to my "to do" list!
ReplyDeleteUgg the pincushion caddy has my heart skipping. I LOVE it!
ReplyDeleteThese are fabulous! I want at least one of each :o) As for the copyright, read up on copyright laws here: http://www.copyright.gov/help/faq/ And, you can always contact the designer and ask for permission. That would be the easiest way to start. Good luck! I look forward to a tutorial. Happy Sewing! :o)

During some blog hopping I saw that basket tute but one evening when I wanted to make one I could not find it again so thanks for the link. As for the caddy 'what can I say' Its fabulous. I want one. Thanks for linking to lush friday.Andrea
ReplyDeleteWell done with both the basket and the caddy. I had heard the caddy was hard to put together. I shall have to have a go at making one! I think the one in my book has a bottom to it.
ReplyDeleteLove the pincushion caddy....so clever! Thanks for linking @Creative Itch's "Sew Cute Tuesday"!
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun little pincushion.
ReplyDeleteThey both turned out so nicely! I love the pincushion! Thank you for linking to my party!
ReplyDeleteI love the basket! I have that tutorial bookmarked, also, but have never gotten around to making it yet.
ReplyDeleteThey look so perfect with each other!
ReplyDeleteI just love your basket and pincushion. I have made the basket and wanted to also make the pincushion....which site did you download the fabric ball pattern from?
