You may like this as well. the pin cushion is 3 x 3 x 2 inch deep
filled with silica sand (found at Michael's) (separate bag to hold the silica sand then cover sewed over that bag, and a scrap bag attached with a couple of straps to the pin cushinon, that bag hangs over the edge of sewing table. The top of the bag, has a pocket, that holds tye strapping from WalMart, and I got the tye strapping for free, (it comes wrapped around their packages or you could get it from any Home Depot or such). I just use a small plastic bag inside the scrap bag, makes for easier cleaning, then when it gets full just toss it out, and get a new one. I can take it to class, the pin cushion fits inside the garbage bag, so I don't worry about losing any of the pins, etc..
