My guild, the KCMQG, frequently hosts fun swaps. This time, we're swapping pincushions with several other MQG chapters. I pulled some favorite materials and printed off a paper pieced template. This block is called Economy, and you can find it here.
I had fun with the directional newsprint and fussy cutting the center.
My first attempt finished at three inches (tiny!), so I'm including it is a mini extra. Four and half inches seems like a more useful size.
I'm looking forward to seeing all the other great pincushions at our meeting tonight.

Those are awesome! Love the fabrics! :)
Very cute. I love the fussy-cut scissors. As silly as it sounds, my favorite pincushion is a baby 1.5" square. so nice to take places!
totally adorable!!!
Whee! We're participating in that swap too!! I love your pincushions.
I really love these pinnies! Black and white and lime with text ... all a favorite of mine!
Kristen, I saw your pincushion(s), last night on the table and loved it so much that I stop by your blog to let you know. It's soooo cute!
