that's what I do with the tiny berries too ! they work so nice in a
take-along project. I have pin cushions in each had-sewing project that I am doing,with my travel machine,several around my sewing

so I have some really neat ones. recently tried wool balls to put in
pretty, small dishes or swans. a mess, but fun. smitty
