Thanks everyone!!! These are so fun to make! You can make a pincushion out of just about anything that has an opening at the top.

Oh a little tip I saw the other day, but I have not tried it yet, is to use silica sand, that you use for drying flowers, as filler for you pincushions!!

Andrea, I cant say that I actually "collect" them, I just love making them! I have given most of them away that I made.

I just used cotton batting on this one. Most of the pincushions I make dont need added wait to them.
