Which pin cushion or magnetic holder should I choose?
Fabric pin cushions for everyday sewing
A fabric pincushion holds pins and hand-sewing needles by their points, keeping them ready beside your machine or cutting table. Choose a compact SewMate cushion, a Prym cotton cushion, or a wooden-base design from Tulip or Hobby Gift. Compare the dimensions and base style to suit your workspace. Decorative dressform, hat and hedgehog designs also make practical sewing gifts.
Magnetic pin holders, dishes and cups
A magnetic holder gives compatible metal pins a convenient landing place as you remove them from fabric. The range includes SewMate and Kearing holders, Prym pin magnets and magnetic cushions, Hobby Gift dishes and The Gypsy Quilter pin cup. A Kearing model includes a needle drawer; the Prym horseshoe magnet is a pickup tool for collecting dropped pins rather than a fabric cushion. Check each listing for its storage features and what is supplied.
Wrist and arm pin cushions for fittings
A wearable cushion keeps pins close while you move around a garment, cutting table or fitting. Choose a soft cushion with an adjustable strap, a Bohin velvet bracelet, or a Prym silicone bracelet with a cushion or magnetic plate. Check the strap, dimensions and fit on the individual product. The magnetic wrist holder appears in both browsing groups.
Will a magnetic holder work with every pin?
Only pins and needles attracted to a magnet will be held securely. Some metals are non-magnetic, so test your pins before relying on the holder. A fabric cushion is an alternative for those pins. Follow the holder's instructions, account for pins when you finish, and use a closed container or a suitable covered holder when transporting sharp items.
Choose a useful gift for a sewist
Match the gift to how the recipient works: a wrist cushion for fittings, a magnetic holder for frequent pin removal, or a tabletop design for their sewing space. Check whether pins are included rather than assuming they come with the cushion. Browse sewing, quilting and patchwork pins, hand-sewing needles and pattern weights to complete the worktable, or explore all quilting supplies.
