    Default Cute Idea for Pincushion

    The pin heads look like planted crops. This is cute for those of you who like to make/collect pincushions:

    Your pincushion is very nice. Yes, the pin heads do look like rows of vegetables. Thanks for sharing.

    That is one I could enjoy...but I would have to find a beautiful base like she did. It looks like an old vanity jar or hair receiver.

    Not only did I enjoy the pin cushion. I found out what a hair receiver was.

    Mimi Kirchner has a lot of great patterns. She sells on etsy. I bought her owl and fish patterns. Her pincushions are wonderful!
