Bee Hive Sampler Pin Cushion - Wool Applique Pattern

Create a BIG Wool Bee Hive Sampler displaying 10 fun embroidery stitches.  Combine a variety of wool pieces both plain, plaids and houndstooth.  A fat bee filled with emery to sharpen your pins and needles is attached to your wool bee hive.  A handy pin keep decorated with another bee will hold all your needles safely.

Fill your Bee Hive Sampler with a combination of Wool Fleece and Crushed Walnut Shells for weight making your hive stand up.

Make your pattern templates QUICKLY & EASILY with Freezer paper, just print the pieces on the paper and iron (shiny side down) on the wool and accurately cut out the wool.

Use our fun Bubbles to keep your Perle cotton safe as you place them in your sewing basket.

Handy Hint: thread a crewel needle with each of the Perle Cotton colors to speed your applique.
