    Default Tiny Pincushion! Bottlecap size.

    Tiny things appeal to me a lot. I have been saving bottle caps off of pop bottles or any size that has a flat bottom. Finally, I made one. Then, I decided to bead it with size 11 seed beads (a new passion of mine also). Now, I have six bottlecaps in various stages of making more. I am including the website that I used to figure out how to put them together. http://www.flickr.com/photos/verybig...ith/123893378/

    Cute. I took some to our charity quilting group at church this morning. I made mine with elastic under the bottle cap so it makes a ring you can wear while you sew or pin. I find I prefer the milk bottle cap size.

    Looks like a fun thing to make. You have a lot of patience to make something so small.

    Very cute! I have one similar but you put 2 holes in the cap for a piece of elastic before stuffing. (You knot the elastic inside the cap.) You can wear it after your done as a ring or bracelet depending on the length of elastic.
