We do what we have to do, right?
Okay there has to be more of us around here! I spend enough time sorting bits of fabric; keeping my pins in line? Hahaha! Seriously, I like the flower head pins, and like you cathyvv, I have trouble picking up pins especially when they are in a bowl, so the magnetic bowls do not work for me. I have pin cushions all over the place and the only kind that is in one particular cushion is the corsage pins used at the LA. My little sewing Grands all like the flower head pins as well.
