Susie C Shore Designs - Who Knew

The wings work great as a needle case, and the 3.5-inch size is just right for keeping by my sewing machine. I made one as an ornament too, and it’s such a quick, satisfying project.

Those little wings doubling as a needle case is such a clever touch—my pins stay organized right where I'm sewing. The 3.5" size is perfect for perching next to my machine, and I already want to stitch up a second one for my desk.

I wasn’t sure what to expect from a pattern, but the instructions were so clear I had the owl pincushion done in one afternoon—and those foldable wings really do keep my needles snug while I’m stitching. Made three more as ornaments for the tree, they’re absolutely adorable at 3.5 inches tall.
