Chicken Dumpling Pincushion
Saw some triangular chicken patterns that were super cute, so I made one to be used as a pincushion. Links to tutorials at the bottom of this post.
I used:
- 5″ x 2.5″ rectangular strip of fabric
- Pieces of felt* for the beak, comb, and wattle
- Rice for filling
* I nearly went with cotton flannel instead of felt, but the flannel I have seems a little too flimsy and likely to fray, so I didn’t.
My chicken stands at about 2.75″ tall.
It appears to be in a perpetual state of staring upwards in wonder.

It shall live on top of my sewing machine.
