Hanging bag/pincushion thingy
Does anyone know the name of that little scrap bag that hangs from a pincushion on edge of sewing table with rubbery stuff on bottom? I made myself one from a kit and want to make one for a friend. Can't find my pattern and don't know how to search for a tute. Thank you!

I would call it a 'Theadcatcher'. Something like this?

I made one after seeing someone with one at a sewing class. I just winged it, but am happy with the result.
I used decorative sand, bought at Michael's for the pin cushion weight. I used the lid of a large yogourt container for the base of the pin cushion.
To keep the thread catcher bag open I used the upper rim of the yogourt container. I do not have to worry about it collapsing.

Another way of keeping the catcher open is use that rigid plastic 'tape' you sometimes get round large parcels and boxes. Sometimes round bundles of papers and magazines too
