Now you get to design the face of your watch anyway you want. You can choose to make it a digital or analog watch. We made the faces on our watches using backstitch, straight stitch and satin stitch. We learned about embroidery from Sublime Stitching, but you can probably learn more about embroidery from the internet or maybe even from Instructables! Don't forget to customize your wristband too! You can decorate it or taper it as we did with this green analog watch.

If embroidery is too difficult you can also decorate your watch with fabric markers or fabric paint. If using paint be careful not to make it so thick that it becomes difficult to put pins into your pin cushion.

Now you have a new pin cushion watch, what will be your next sewing project?

And remember, even this watch will be right twice a day!
