    I'm guessing it's a magnet on a pivoting head. If she doesn't have a magnet yet, she needs to get on of the telescoping kind. Beautiful for pins that need to slide alllllllllllll the way under the table.

    Yes, Grannie, your right - it is the telescoping magnet...super for those pins that invariably land under the table or bed.

    That sounds like something I could use, for sure.

    I've been pulling out lint with q-tips. A long skinny brush would be ideal, but I NEVER remember it when I'm out shopping.

    I don't wear makeup. But I am going to see if I can find the hummingbird feeder brush someone gave me once---------which I never used for that purpose since I just bleach the heck out of the feeders then rinse a dozen times.

    If you are a longarmer, they have long large magnets that you can put on your belly bar to hold the quilt top in place.
