Keep Quilt Pieces Organized with DIY Number Pins
| January 11, 2021 | Sewing Room
Make Alphabet Pins, Number Pins, or Both!
While scrap paper and post-it notes work fine to keep quilt pieces organized, pretty alphabet and number pins work even better. Plus they’re ready to go any time you need them.
You can purchase ready-made numbered pins. Or make your own with long pins and beads. They’re simple to make and beads are available in many color combinations with both numbers and letters.
Add colorful beads to finish them off. You can have several made in a short period of time.
Start with long pins, beads, and glue. The designer prefers corsage pins because they’re long and nice-looking but choose whatever pins you like.
- Corsage Pins
- Alphabet Beads
- Number Beads
- E6000 Glue
- Magnetic Bowl for storing the pins
Nancy from My Fancy Nancy Life explains how they’re made in the following tutorial.
