Do you remember your first pincushion? What a long way pincushions have come from the days of the tomato and strawberry!
Here are five cute animal pin cushions that you can make. Each link will take you to instructions in written or video form.
1. Birdie pincushion from Sharon Holland Designs.

2. These owls are so adorable, you may feel hesitant to stick in pin in them. Owl pincushions from My Owl Barn.

3. I think this pincushion is an homage to the classic tomato and strawberry pincushion. Look carefully at the back end of the mice. Strawberry mice pincushion from Polka Dot Pineapple.
4. This pincushion would make a great gift for the young sewing enthusiast. Creepy spider cupcake pincushion from DMC Threads.

5. On the website, this pincushion is called simply “mouse pincushion,” but I think a better name is “sad mouse.” Sad mouse pincushion from The Long Thread.
