Wooden Pin Cushion with Magnet – Pumpkin Pincushion, 12 Prints

A plump pumpkin pin cushion, sitting snug in a smooth, natural wooden base. It looks lovely on a sewing table or beside an embroidery hoop, and it gives your pins and needles two separate homes in one small cushion.

Pins push into the padded sections around the top. Needles get their own spot: lay one across the fabric-covered button at the center and the magnet inside holds it there, so it is never lost in the stuffing or left loose on the table. The wooden base keeps everything steady, so it will not roll away.

Choose from 12 cottage-style prints, from soft florals and polka dots to a bee and daisy design.

Two Homes for Your Pins and Needles

Pins go in. Push straight pins into the padded sections around the top, where they stand up ready to grab.

Needles lie on top. Lay hand-sewing and embroidery needles across the center button. The magnet holds them flat and in plain sight, so you can see which one is threaded and pick it straight back up.

How This Compares

Against an all-magnetic pin dish. A magnetic dish holds everything in a jumble on its surface. This cushion keeps pins upright in fabric and gives needles a separate magnetic spot, so each is easy to find, and it looks like a classic pin cushion on your table.

Against a plain stuffed pin cushion. Needles no longer sink out of sight into the stuffing. They sit on the center button where you can see them, and the wooden base keeps the cushion from rolling.

Against a wrist pin cushion. This one lives on the table, so there is nothing to wear, and it is a natural home for needles mid-project.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the meaning of a pin cushion?
A pin cushion is a small padded holder that keeps sewing pins and needles in one safe place. This one adds a magnetic center for needles and a wooden base so it stays put.

Which sewing pins and needles stick to the magnet?
Steel needles and pins are attracted to magnets, which is how the center button holds them. Some stainless or brass pins are not magnetic; those simply go into the padded top like any other pin.

Will it roll or tip over?
The cushion sits in a flat-bottomed wooden base, so it stays upright on a table or desk.

Is it safe around children?
It contains a small magnet and holds sharp pins and needles, so keep it out of reach of young children.

Pick your favorite print and give your pins and needles a pretty, steady home.
