You Will Need (5 things)

  • Sewing Pin(s)
  • Blade
  • Polymer Clay
  • Pasta Machine
  • Liquid Clay

Steps (6 steps, 30 minutes)

  1. 1

    Excuse me for my basic and terrible English.

    Make a Skinner blend using your pasta machine. You need about 20 steps into the machine to get a nice gradient.

  2. 2

    Pass through the pasta machine your Skinner blend starting from the purple and create a strip about 2 mm thick.

    Add a thin layer of black polymer clay and roll it to make a Jelly Roll Cane.

    Be careful, don't incorporate air bubbles.

  3. 3

    Finish your Jelly Roll Cane and reduce it until a diameter of about 1cm.

  4. 4

    Cut into slices of about 2mm wide, place the pin and add a drop of liquid clay.
    Close with a disk of black clay or with another little slice of cane.

    Put in the oven and cook it.

  5. 5

    Another way to decorate your sewing pins is to cut your Jelly Roll Cane into slices 3mm wide.
    Make a little hole, put in a bit of liquid clay and insert your pin... than put it in the oven.

  6. 6

    A green variation :)
