{"product_id":"pincushion-needles-safety-pin","title":"Pincushion With Needles \u0026 Safety Pin Embroidery Design, Machine Embroidery Pattern, Instant Download","description":"\u003cp\u003ePulled this together after abit of back-and-forth on sizing -- 5 sizes from 3.5 to 7.5 inches wide. The design centres on a round pincushion, that classic tomato shape, with maybe five or six needles sticking out at odd angles and one safety pin half-open below it. Its the kind of image you see on every sewing room wall and I wanted to stitch it out in a way that actually reads clearly even at the smaller 3.5-inch hoop. Wilcom EmbroideryStudio handled the satin columns on the cushion body really well, keeping that tight tomato-red fill without pulling or distorting, which is harder than it sounds on a rounded shape.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTheres only 1 colour stop in the file, so the needle shafts and safety pin are all stitched in the same thread pass as the background underlay tone. That keeps the colour changes minimal but the contrast still lands because the density on the cushion -- 163 stitches per cm -- gives it that slightly raised, almost padded look. Ive run this across 5 sizes from 3.5 inches wide up to 7.5 inches and the needle detail holds at every step. Pair it on a kraft canvas tote with your shop name below and youre done. One customer grabbed the 5-inch version for a sewing-themed birthday project and sent me a photo last November, looked great on the pocket.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eUse a cutaway stabiliser underneath. The pincushion fill is dense enough that a tear-away will shift during stitching and youll lose registration on the needles. Medium weight cutaway, hooped tight, and it runs clean. Skip the topping unless youre stitching onto a loopy fleece -- its not needed on most wovens.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAdd the 7.5-inch hoop version to a linen apron or canvas bag and it reads from across the room. The smaller 3.5-inch sits nicely on a shirt pocket or on the corner of a quilt label. Hit me up through the shop chat if theres a size issue with your hoop.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Re Embroidery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46018285633686,"sku":null,"price":1.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0699\/6262\/9270\/files\/PincushionWithNeedles_SafetyPinEmbroideryDesign.png?v=1765356678","url":"https:\/\/reembroidery.com\/products\/pincushion-needles-safety-pin","provider":"Re Embroidery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
