FYI, Harbor Freight has the magnetic bowls discussed on a prior thread on the QB. The 6" bowl is $3.99 and the 4" bowl is $2.99. I absolutely love the one I have, bought mine at the local auto parts store and paid $6.99. I discovered that I can just toss the flat flower head pins at the bowl and they line up around the edge flower head up. I just make sure that the bowl does not get close to my computerized sewing machine.

I have one that I keep by my chair for my hand stitching. I keep it in a rubbermaid type bowl with a lid. When we are traveling in our truck, I put the bowl with the magnetic bowl on the console. It keeps my pins where they are suppose to be. It also has room for a spool or bobbin of thread, small sissors and thimble for the project I am working on. Wonder how I got along without this inexpensive gadget!:)

I went to Harbor Freight with my dad on Wed. I saw that bowl but was afraid of it getting to close to my Janome. However, I thought of you all when I picked up my 10 packs of rotary blades. The worker told me I was lucky they had some in stock.
The Lakeland, FL store gets them in on Fridays, in case any of you who live near there are interested.
