I am totally in love with my new pincushion! I made it yesterday using my Accuquilt Go! and the Double Wedding Ring die…Yes, the Double Wedding Ring die.
You will only be using the ellipse portion of the die…. Here’s a little video to show you how to make it.
If you haven’t made a pincushion using crushed walnuts, you are missing out. They are WONDERFUL!! If you make a pincushion or any of the other projects I’ve done tutorials for, I would love to see them…so send me a picture.
Great idea!! I absolutely love that! What is the advantage to using crush walnut shells? Is it the smell? Ir does it sharpen your pins?
Thanks again!
Where do you buy crushed walnut shells?
That is so clever! I don’t have an Accuquilt Go, but I do have a set of templates for the Double Wedding Ring block, so I’m going to give this a try using that.

I’ve actually read that the walnut shells dull pins, like wood shavings would. Either way my dd is allergic to walnuts so I wouldn’t try it but I know a lot of people do use them.
