Check out your husband's tool box. He had a couple, so he gave me one. I use it all of the time, but be careful, it can magnetize other metal things. I keep it well away from my computerized machine, just in case.

Got one but rarely use it. Now that you've brought it to my attention maybe I should start using it as it would be so much easier to pick those pins up with this gadget. Thanks for reminding me what I already have around the sewing room.

I also have several of Harbor Freight's magnetic mini bowls to hold my different size pins. I did learn to never stack them...:o

Just make sure you keep it away from your machine if your machine is electronic, the magnets can mess up the machine.

Isn't it wonderful that people keep coming up with ideas to make our quilting and our lives easier? I think I need to get that magic wand as I'm always dropping pins/needles, etc.
|
Got to look into that one!
|
I agree with everyone. I have one, and use it all of the time. In fact mine, is attached to my flruoscent(sp) light behind my sewing machine.
|
I got one at Autozone for $1.99
|
I have a similar one from Harbor Freight.
