It has happened. The SewSimple virus has now spread to friends and family too! So, when I went in search of a beautiful pincushion for my best friend, I stumbled across so many brilliant tutorials. I just couldn't help but gather them all here!
Such an individual pincushion is a gorgeous gift for anyone who loves to sew. Stocked with a few pretty, color-coordinated pins, they make a classy gift that will make any sewer's heart beat faster.
- Monica from Diary of a Quilt shows you in a tutorial how to sew the classic Cathedral Window pincushion.
- Ideas Sew and So uses fabric scraps to make these colorful pincushions.
- A simple little pincushion from Make it Coats. The four small buttons create a tufted texture and give the pincushion firmness.
- One of the most brilliant pincushions, in my opinion, is this one from LiebEling. In the tutorial, she uses the Grundtal container from Ikea, resulting in not just a pretty pincushion, but also a pin magnet on the bottom. Well, you've got to have ideas!
- Nell from Shabby-Roses-Cottage has a simple pincushion for the sewing machine that I like especially because of the fabric choice.
- A very easy-to-sew but sophisticated-looking windmill-design pincushion can be found here for you.

- I think the pincushion bracelet from DIYMode is a totally smart idea: A simple felt band is turned into a practical pin bracelet using pretty ribbons and magnetic bag clasps.
- It surely comes as no surprise that I particularly like the pincushion from "Nach Stich und Faden": I loooove Zakka! It's impossible to say which pincushion is the most beautiful. I think they are all delightful!
