Mason Jar Pin Cushion

I finally brought another one of my Mason Jar Madness ideas to life.  This idea is actually a gift for Sutton :)  She's vertically challenged so she is always hemming her pants.  Since she is a little seamstress, this idea was perfect for her.  I used the mason jar to create a pin cushion/thread holder.
Supplies:
* 1 Mason jar
* Fabric of your choice
*Quilt Batting
* Hot glue gun
*Scissors

 Step 1: Lay out your batting and cut circles about the size of the lid of the mason jar. Cut as many as it take to get the height desired.

Step 2: Place your fabric over your batting

Step 3: Flip the fabric and batting over and place the flat part of the lid on the other side

Step 4: Flip back over and add the ring of the jar around the fabric and batting.  Adjust the amount of cushion you want on top.
 Step 5: Once you have the right size cushion, trim the extra fabric and then glue the rest down.

 Step 6: Add your needle and thread :)
