Join this Stitch-ALong to stitch & finish the Zoe Pincushion & Weights!
By the end of this SAL, you will have stitched and assembled 4 pretty mini biscornus, one of which we will have finished as a pincushion that you can strap to your wrist. The other three will have been finished as sewing weights. Those weights can be used to keep a pattern in place while you’re cutting it out into fabric, or as a paper weight, to keep your PDF pattern from flying away while you’re stitching. What’s more, all 4 mini biscornus fit snuggly into the matching Zoe Box, so you can tidy them away when you’re not using them!
