    Seems like a lot of work to grab a pin...I prefer my magnetic bowl from the auto shop. Also, I use the long hat-type pins and they would probably not work with this...but I hope you get it for Christmas and it works for you! We each have our own style, that's what makes it fun!

    The needle threader is my favorite too. It is great for these old eyes when I am using the small eyed needles.

    Waste of money and time, in my opinion. However, to each his own.

    Of course, but sometimes we tell ourselves that when we really want to get something that is pricey. After reading the posts here I don't think it's worth the money even if it was just a few dollars - money would be better spent on fabric.

    Good Golly, If we live long enough no telling what will come up next. This is really quite a gadget. I doubt I would buy one but fun to see.
    Thanks for sharing.

    I love gdgets, this one is a bit expensive. I have pin cushions all over my sewing room. I rarely prick myself.

    It would be a nice Christmas gift for someone, I am also a gadget girl, but I think I will wait to buy that one.

    I love gadgets. My DH says the only gadget I don't have is the one I haven't seen. LOL.
    I prefer the magnatic pin bowl. I have three of them. My newest gadget wish is the rotary blade sharpener that Patrice told us about. Hoping that's what DH will get me for Christmas.
