What a simply great idea and soooo cute! Once again, when I don't even know I am looking for something, someone on this board gives me an idea that I can use.
My clover pins are getting dull. I was considering how I could make something to use as a pincushion to stick them in to sharpen them. My idea was to use steel wool inside some type batting covered with cotton for a pin cushion. I was wondering what to use as the base. Now, I know. Thanks so much for posting this. Now, will the steel wool work as a sharpening agent? I've got to go test that out. |

Yes this does work as I have at least one I have made, not with steel wool but with a steel scrubbers from the Dollar Tree. One thing, don't use left over cotton batting inside the pin cushion as for some reason, probably the scrim, the pins don't go through it very easy. I wrap the scrubber, which I cut down to a smaller piece in a piece of cotton fabric and then in some poly stuffing for the body of the cushion. |

I wasn't asking but am sure glad you posted a picture. From now on I will be checking out the ceramics and tea cups at the second hand store. Thank you for posting the info.
