I made more fabric covered tack pins.  These are really fun to make and I love trying to figure out how I want the fabric to look on the pin, and today I made myself a template to help me.  Basically, I took the larger size circle for the size of the fabric and traced it unto another cardboard piece of paper.  Then I positioned one of the buttons inside the circle as centered as possible and traced around it.  After that was done, I cut out that center circle so I could see where I wanted position it on my fabric instead of just blindly figuring things out.

These ones are made from a fabric with nesting doll designs on them.  I plan to use these in my home office when it’s ready. 

These ones are for Adam’s new office.  I picked geometric designs for him that have an 80’s kinda feel since he’s an 80’s kinda guy.  If only I had fabric with dice on it …
