Cosmic Cottage Pincushion - New Free Pattern

Greetings friends - thank you for visiting with me today. As you know, I am celebrating the 20th Anniversary of Blue Ribbon Designs this month, with a giveaway each week (four total) and a few surprises. Today I'm here to share a 2nd surprise...another brand new free pattern! I want to say thank you for your kind support over the last 20 years...and what better way to do that, than to design another new complimentary pattern - this one is for my sewing and quilting friends/fans.

This is a celebratory one and I am calling it "Cosmic Cottage Pincushion." This unique pincushion has a hidden/secret pocket to hold your scissors. ✀ I had so much fun creating this new original pattern. It is a blend of foundation piecing and traditional piecing...and will truly brighten up your stitching nest! The fabric I used is from the Moonbeam Dreams collection by Amanda Grace Design for Poppie Cotton....and of course, I used some of my very favorite Therm O Web products. For embellishments, I used Hand-dyed Rick Rack, Hand-Dyed Pom Poms, and Hand-Dyed Ruler Twill Tape, all from my favorite Lady Dot Creates!...plus I added a 1/4" button for the cottage doorknob. The printable color pattern is five pages, including my Cosmic Cottage quilt block foundation. You will need basic foundation piecing knowledge, but it is a simple pattern that a beginner can handle and comes together quickly! I stuffed my pincushion with a mix of fiberfill and sawdust and had fun pulling some decorative pins from my collection to adorn it.

You can find the printable PDF chart here:

I kindly ask you do not post the actual pattern on the Internet/social media or on Pinterest - instead, post a photo of the finished piece and/or direct users to this post or my website.

Some of you may recognize this fabric collection - this anniversary pincushion is made from the same fabrics I used for my "Flutter and Flower" Sewing Machine Dust Cover and Sewing Machine Mat Pattern.

I have also added a post to my Amazon Shop, where you can find the exact tools and supplies I used to create my pincushion (full disclosure: as an Amazon Influencer, I earn from qualifying purchases - I only share products I actually use - and I truly appreciate you visiting and/or shopping from my links, thank you!)https://www.amazon.com/shop/brdgirl

For those who have kindly asked if they could purchase the Cosmic Cottage Pincushion pattern (💗), I ask you talk about my designs with your quilty/stitching friends (spread the word about Blue Ribbon Designs) and/or visit my Etsy Shop to make a purchase...or you can Buy Me a Coffee or shop at Amazon via my link...it is definitely not required or necessary, but truly appreciated - thank you for supporting my creativity and valuing my artistry!💕

Finally - if you plan to sew up a "Cosmic Cottage Pincushion,"  I hope you will share an image of your progress or finished pincushion on social media and tag me, so I can see it.
