I was back in the workroom on Sunday and the pincushions caught my attention. I thought that I would share the way I work with them.
I have two pincushions that I use. I keep one next to my sewing machine and one on my cutting table.

I could move one pincushion from one place to another, but I received a second pincushion as a gift and thought of a new system.
When I start with pinning things together, I often pin on my ironing board or cutting table. It is very convenient to have the pins handy.
Lately, I added some WonderClips to the side. I needed them handy on the cutting table.
The rectangular pincushion is on my cutting table right now.

One of the pincushions sits next to my sewing machine. As I sew I have pincushion handy to put pins in as I remove them.
The wool felt round one is currently next to my sewing machine.
That’s my system. I hope it helps.
