This clever pretzel is actually a pincushion with white pinheads for salt! It's easy to make and is a fun addition to any sewing room. Let's get started.
Fold the strip lengthwise. Using a 1/4 inch seam allowance, stitch down the long side, leaving a 2 inch opening halfway down.
Stitch the short sides, curving them to give the pretzel curved ends. Trim the seam allowance close to the stitching line.
Turn the pretzel right side out through the opening.
Stuff it firmly and close the opening using a ladder stitch. Fold it like a pretzel.
Tack the ends down with a few stitches to hold them in place.
Push pins into the pretzel at random intervals to look like sprinkled salt.
Now go make another! These are so fun and so quick.
Enjoy!
