Pincushion Cat Melissa is a completely functional pincushion for sewers or can be used as a cool decorative piece. The majority of this pincushion was hand sewn. Melissa, like all my other creations, is handcrafted and made from my own patterns.

This item consists of 1 cat pincushion and 15 assorted pins.

The kitty pincushion is made of brown felt. Her face consists of 2 orange ballpoint pins for the eyes, 1 yellow ballpoint pin for the nose and 12 straight pins that make up the mouth and whiskers (6 for whiskers and 6 for the mouth). Her feet are made from brown pom poms. She has a yellow flower on her ear and a gold collar with a gold bell attached. She also has a multicolored (yellow, pink and blue) ruffled lace skirt. The baby is made of light brown pom poms and has small yellow beads for eyes and 2 tiny pieces of felt for the ears. He/she is wrapped in a yellow blanket made from felt. (Or as my sister and brother-in-law put it, a baby burrito.) She is firmly stuffed with 100% polyester fiberfill. I also made a sand pouch from cotton fabric and sewed that inside the pincushion which gives her more stability. The sand is wrapped first in a plastic bag (just to make sure no sand will ever escape) and then it gets sealed inside the cotton fabric pouch.

This kitty stand approximately 5.5 inches (14 cms) tall and is approximately 10.25 inches (26 cms) around the belly.
