Somewhere, some time back, I saw one of those 'tomato' pincushions that they had sectioned off from top to bottom
with a black marker. Then in each section at the top they
put the size number of each needle, so if you changed from
one to another you could put it then in the right section to
know what it was later on....am I making sense?? I think it
was more for those that do the machine embrodiery, or where
they use different size needles. Or could be used for different types of needles; embrodiery, quilting, machine
etc. Just an idea.

Love these!! I'm not good at just winging measurements, so can you please tell me how big of a piece of toilet paper roll, and what size yo-yo did you use for each? I'm the chairwoman for the take down committee for our guild's quilt show and these would make nice thank you's for my helpers.

Those look so nice. You did such a good job on them. The way you explained how to make them sounds to easy maybe even I could make some. Thanks for sharing :)
