I see a few pins stuck to the side--what if you filled a small pillow with pin cushion medium (wool or I like to use bird grit)and put it in the jean pocket for a handy pin cushion.

I would like to know the dimensions for your scraps. I would like to make this bag also. What size mason jar do you use--pint? Thanks in advance. Very cute.

I didn't measure anything...just grabbed the butt pocket of a pair of jeans and threw it together.

Yes, the mason jar is the pint size.

The birds around here don't pick it up. I've put out yarn, thread, and thin fabric cuttings, but it just blows around the yard and looks messy.

That bag is too cute!
