No way! LOL, I am going to tell my husband I just saved $20.00 by not buying this and then go spend it on fabric! Love my pin cushion!

I'm a gadget person, but I don't think I'm jumping for this one. How hard is it to take pins in and out of a pin cushion?

Not for me. Just what I would need- takes up too much space. A pin cushion works just fine.

I'll never hold pins in my mouth again...had one go to the back of my throat once and thought I was going to have to swallow it! Never again.

Having said that....I wouldn't bother with one of those gadgets either, I don't think...lol

Typically I want every gadget that comes down the road, but surprisingly, even I have no interest in that goofy thing.

I can see where it would be a great time saver for fabric shops that pin the ticket to the fabric. The employee is always looking for the pin container and when have you ever have worked in a group making quilt and not have the pin container spill all over? I think it will have a place and be indispensable. LOL.

I know without a doubt I'll get one for Christmas when one of my DDs ask what's new at any quilt shop. They love finding me new sewing gadgets!
