This is my pincushion. It think I got it with a box of sewing supplies when I was maybe 10 years old? It very well may have been from one of my grandmothers. At one point it was bright turquoise and all of the politically incorrect chinamen around the edge wore extra bright jumpsuits. Now it is faded and so threadbare that the sawdust interior is starting to leak. It's a sad moment but it has come time for a new one.
