I've been busy making a pincushion all day. It's my first attempt at fussy cutting. Not perfect, but it's OK. Here's the link for the website, where you can get the free pattern -

I English paper pieced it, just to make things harder for myself. All I have to do now is fill it, but I'll leave that for tomorrow.
Fussy cutting the diamonds. I didn't bother fussy cutting the hexagons though.
My 6 hexagons and 12 diamonds tacked and ready to sew together. The fabrics are Tilda. It's from a pack of fabrics I bought from Create & Craft. I used the thread which came with the fabrics to sew the pieces together.
I had to unpick this star because I got some of the diamonds the wrong way round!
Inside out ...
Turned right side out, and ready to be filled.
I like the way it's turned out. I love the colours.
