Pin Problem Solved

I don't have a dedicated sewing area in my home. I have set up shop on my dining room table. It works out fine most of the time. Until late one night, with limited light, I dropped my entire box of pins on the floor. And my floor is carpeted. What a nightmare that was! 

So, off I set to make a  pin cushion in hopes of avoiding finding myself of my hands and knees with a flashlight picking pins out of the carpet at 11 p.m.

I found a tutorial (which I can't seem to locate now) for a yo-yo pincushion and loved the look (and functionality) of it.

I used the left over fabric from Nug's Perfect Little Party Dress. Here's what I came up with...

Cute and funtional. Perfect.
