Aurora,
I am so glad to hear that you liked your swap. I try to suit my pin cushions to who or what the person might like. I collect tins to and when I saw that one I knew it had to be a pin cushion then I thought what fun to put the needle case in it. I was going to find a small pair of scissors to go on the back of the needle case but needed to get it in the mail. You are so welcome and I had so much fun making it, no I did not know you collect tins but will keep that in mind.
