cute pin cushions

I embroidered and made these cute pin cushions. I have several DGD's who are learning to sew. I thought they would make great stocking stuffers for Christmas. They are filled with ground nut shells.

They are 4 inch squares and once I figured out how to sew them together, they were easy. I used a cut awat stabilizer behind the embroidery and I left it in the middle for a little added body to the pin cushion. You could leave them plain or use a cute print fabric.
