this is a cute pincushion , sewing container. Recycle a tin can for the middle, I used cheese dip. if you use a tuna can the lid fits down over it a bit and it won't be as tall. You can stick your pins in the quilted top. It would be nice for any ones sewing room. From Crafty Crow at OPW, half price too

Very nice as well. I don't think I would like to use a Tuna can. I have a thing about canned fish hate the smell. No matter how many times I washed the tin I would imagine I could smell it.

You can always get some cheese dip, lol. The can gives it a nice structure. I'm going to make more in different colors
