I have one of these on all my machines , I can just pop them in as I sew and it's alway's in the same place lol, so i can't miss. Well most of the time, they still seem to like the floor best but I just pick them up with my magnet on a stick, my hips do not like me going on the floor and won't let me up again. :)

That is awesome idea...i want one :-(

great idea. thanks for sharing

Thanks for the great tip!

I like this idea, but worry that the pins might scratch through to the machine if there was not a plastic insert to stop it. I first saw the idea on the Martha Stewart show and she had a pattern for one.

Thanks I have been trying to figure out a place to put a pin cushion on my machine.

I've seen similar pin cushions on old estate sale commercial machines and always thought they were a little disgusting looking, but this one is so pretty! NOW I get it!

Great idea. Thanks for pointing this out. She is selling these in her Etsy shop for $5 which seems reasonable enough. I recognize this is easy to make, but I don't know when I would get to it and for $5, I'm happy to support her. I don't think there are any left on her site, but I imagine if someone wants one and emails her, she would whip up another one. Thanks again for pointing this out.

Printed it out and plan on making it today. Thanks

this is a convenient location for a pincushion. thanks for sharing
