Pretty Little Pincushion

I can never find the right place to leave my pincushion. Do you have the same problem? I have actually stopped using one because I find them somewhat inconvenient. However, as a result of not using one, I cannot tell you how many times I have dumped my pins all over the floor, my lap, my sewing table (you get the picture). When I was in Oregon I saw a pincushion that went on your thumb. I wanted a pincushion that went on my thumb, too! But, I wanted it to be CUTE. So, here is the result....



This is the prototype and not as perfect as I would like it to be, but I am working on a few more and a pattern on how to make them. They are easy (my first one took less than an hour once I figured out what I wanted to do) and they can be made with scraps. I was wearing it and admiring it and my hubby asked "Are you going to wear it instead of your wedding ring?" Ha, ha. Maybe I will!
