This free sewing pattern is the tea light + candle plate pincushion from “I Always Pick the Thimble”. Here’s how they describe it:
I’m starting to wonder if I have a slight obsession with these pins. They’re pretty pins and they deserve a pretty home, right? I decided my ugly tomato was just not cutting it any longer and wanted a prettier pincushion sitting beside my sewing machine. I was fiddling around with some candle plates one day and realized they would make a great base for a pincushion to sit on. I love how clean and simple they are, and how the glass base dresses up what would otherwise be just another round, stuffed fabric pincushion.
