OK I've just tried the heart shape pin cushion. I just couldn't make that beautiful knot like everyone else did. So, I sewed a little ribbon with a good luck charm. I managed to put pins in it, now that's a plus. The pattern is beautiful, thank you Cutties.

Thank you Cutties. I have followed all instructions you have given me. I have removed some filling and have pulled tighter on the ears. I think it looks like the what it should look like now. Next one I will embroider it. Thank you, I'm learning. Carole NB Canada

Looks good.
You have to pull really hard to tie the knot!

yes, and after the pull it becomes the size of my hand.

Without the knot its look also nice. A other way gives new ideas.
Nice butterfly fabric.

I am going to try and make one this week. Wonder why you could not get it to knot, could it be too much filling maybe. Would be interesting to know. Love them

No, I have the right amount of filling, but my knot did not look nice, at least I thought so. I'll have to try it again. Carole, NB Canada

You have to make sure there is no stuffing in the parts that you knot. And too stiff fabric can make knotting hard too.

Urika, thanks edith and mops, I did have to much rice. I did not expect this little heart to be the size of my hand. I'll add a picture of my knot a little later.
