Step 1: trim linen to 1 2 inch on all sides from edge of stitching and cut a piece of coordinating material to exact size of the trimmed stitched piece. step 2: pin the two pieces together (right sides together) note: i sometimes will use iron on interfacing on the stitched piece especially if i know it will be used as an actual pincushion and. 4. now we need to turn over the seam allowance of your stitched pieces. first of all i fold over the corners right at the hole of the corner stitches of the back stitched line. then fold over the seam itself along the back stitched line of stitches. continue all the way around until all the edges are folded over.
