Pin Cushions and Bead Pins

 I am the chair for our Quilt Guild's upcoming Show Boutique in October.  As such, I have been watching for and making cute, fun, attractive, and hopefully easy projects.  Both for examples and also for sale.

 I made the above bead pins.  E6000 plus some beads and some pins = fancy bead pins.  The pin cushion is something Mr. Riley picked up in an antique shop for me.

 Cute butterfly bead pins. 

 I also made the cup pin cushion.  Once again, E6000 plus whatever you want to glue together.  The cushion is a piece of coffee colored upholstery scrap sewn and stuffed in a ball and glued in the cup.

 Fancy glass bead pins.

 And a pin cushion made of a Limoges piece of porcelain.  I love thrift shops.

 Fun, cute, easy, and hopefully good sellers.  I have been collecting more items to make pin cushions.  I'll share them when I'm done.  Or maybe a few weeks later, when I get to blogging. Hah!
