Snail pillow for pins and needles

Sewing needles or pins are not very convenient to store in a box. It’s better to sew an original pillow in the shape of a snail with your own hands and the necessary needles will always be at hand - beautiful and comfortable.



In order to make this accessory you will need the following materials:
• A piece of soft tissue
• Batting
• Pattern
• Threads, needle, scissors
Take a piece of fabric from which you will need to sew 12 pieces.



Cut out 2 crescent-shaped patterns from paper, one slightly larger than the other. Trace the crescents on the back of the fabric with a pencil or pen to make 12 blanks: six large and six small. Cut it out.



You can make one of the blanks with a pattern to “revive” your future pincushion.



Sew six pads: fold the blanks on the back side and sew a seam in a circle, leaving part of the raw edge to turn the crescent inside out and stuff it with batting. Then sew it up completely.



Now you need to connect the crescents together. Place one on top of the other and make a neat seam.



Thus, connect 3 large crescents together in the form of a circle.



Next, sew on 2 smaller pieces.



Twist the remaining crescent and sew it into the middle of the snail. The pillow is ready!



This accessory looks original and unusual. And most importantly, it is practical.
