Good Morning, Quilters!
I have a lot of pin cushions….Do YOU?
There’s one by each sewing machine, one on my cutting table, an upstairs pin cushion, a downstairs pin cushion, one for needles, one for silk pins….
MY NEW ZIRKEL
I can always use another pin cushion. So when I saw this Zirkel red magnetic pin cushion at my local quilt shop, I was intrigued! Have you seen these? It is magnetized so that the pins align themselves on the outer edge-making them easy to grab!
Very clever!
When I saw a red one…well I just knew it had to come home with me!
Be sure to get a demo of the Zirkel at your quilt store!
