The first photo is an old clock I made into a wall pin cushion.

The second is a traveling pin cushion. I enlarged the image on the fabric and made the front cover "sewing bug".
hope you like the ideas.

I like your wall pin cushion! It would make a great space to display antique pins and brooches from your grandmother/mother. Your travelling bug is cute too!
