Lotus Flower Pincusion

Post by sewingbee44 » Mon May 05, 2008 8:20 pm

I've been to two Quilt shows, one here in L.A. and in Oregon.I saw this cute lotus flower pincusion.In L.A. I asked the vendor if she had the pattern to sell? She said no, to buy it at $15.00 and take it apart.I don't think so! I saw it again in Oregon,that vendor also didn't have the pattern.I searched the internet, nothing.The pedals are prairie points really cute for gifts.Has anyone seen these or can tell me where I can buy the pattern? I would appreciate it.Thanks-Yvette

Someone had a pincushion in the photo section. It may be the same one. For me to remember there may not have been this many petals, but looks like you could add as many petals as you want. I remember 2 people making it and posted photos

It was Quilter78, who just turned 79, I think. Amie :o)

PS- She posted the directions for everyone in the Techniques or Fabric section. I printed it off, very good directions.

It is under "Fabric" discussion topics. I just brought it back up to the top for you. Like Alina said, I think you could just add more petals. I was given one of those as a gift and have wanted to make one also.
Have Fun,

I've made this pincushin about 15 times but I turned my petals down. I luv the way the look up - changes the whole look.

The one I posted looks more like a Lotus flower to me and is sewn not glued... but the other one posted might work for you Yvette and is free... even better!
Also I just noticed that ladies website is selling the completed pin cushion for $15 and not the pattern... shucks... maybe the same lady you dealt with... hahaha!
Cheers!
