Intro to Machine Embroidery: Redwork Pincushion

Embroidery machines are great for embellishing your projects and garments with pretty motifs and personalizing your items with monograms, but they can do SEW much more! Redwork is the original word for outline embroidery hand sewn with red thread in the late 1800's, but the name is still used today to describe outline needlework in any color. Choose a snowflake or flower for this petite pincushion, then let your embroidery machine get the stitches just right. Filled with ground walnut shells inserts will keep your pins and needles sharp!
