gcathie,
thanks so much for posting this. i am always looking for cute pincushions and this is adorable! my mom kinda collects them, she's got them all over her sewing room but like diamonds, you can never have enough! :lol: i made one that was a cube not too long ago for her, but this would be a great little addition, for sure.

Our guild made them to "sell" (they were free with a $5 or more contribution) at the art festival here. I think we sold 400 or so. We used it as a fundraiser to support our philanthropy project. Ours were really simple...rectangular pin cushion filled with sand for weight and then the bag attached to that. They turned out really cute though.

Ooooh I love this, I am so gonna try and make it. At the moment I am using a plastic baggie for scraps and threads, but the cats keep running off with it. Although they might try the same with this! Thanks
