Well, I see the picture! It showed up yesterday, with the original post. Maybe you have some 'block' filter on?

BTW, it's the most adorable pink checked pincushion in the bowl of a silver spoon!

To make them: You just sew a little cover over the bowl of the spoon.Fill with wool or polyfil, then gather and tuck it around the handle. Add the little bow for decoration.

How did you make that oh so cute spoon pin cushion? Like for instance how did you secure the fabric to the top of the spoon where you have the bow? i have lots of old silver spoons and thought I might try and make a few. So any advise is welcome.

I made the cover and then just made little gathers to make it tight around the handle. I'm sure how to best explain.

I'll try to work up some better instrustions

Saw similar ones in a quilting supply catalog. Those would make great stocking stuffers, I know, I'm either early or late in my thinking.

Too cute! What catalog was the original project in? I may have to subscribe to it to see what other great ideas are in it.

They had some kits for sale at Handmaidens in Sandy (Utah) when I went the other day. First time I've seen them in kits.

Happy Wishes!
