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

Another fantastic gift idea. I am definitely for making all gifts. I love getting something some one has made. Love it/Lillian

oh Bev this is really cool! what a gr8 idea too. ~hugs~

I have saved cat food tins for this purpose exactly! I love that! You rock!

Got your thinking cap on again........I love how you repurpose things... really cute idea!

Very creative..

I like it, looks good.

thought I would try something without a zipper. I made another but don't have a can to fit

Nice one and very practical.

Thank you

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
