On the bed of my sewing machine, next to the foot/needle area, I taped a magnetic business card upside down (magnet side facing up) to catch pins as I remove them when I sew. Then they don't go rolling around and falling on the floor as often.
When I machine quilt, I take it off and just tape it back when I'm done. |

For what it's worth:
I asked my dealer about the magnet hurting the computer in my Sapphire Husquavarna machine. She said the electronics are embedded so deeply in the machine that it doesn't affect it.
