I didn't put anything in the bottom on these. I just stuffed the fabric until it fit the cup testing as I stuffed and then used the glue gun to make a bead around the inside of cup and put the cushion in. Did all embellishments before gluing the cup to the saucer.

The cups are adorable with matching pieces, but why not go out on a limb and mix the pieces? A cute patchy pin cushion would be precious. Think scrappy quilt.
