Pin Cushions

Vintage Pin Cushions

I have just begun collecting vintage pin cushions. The one with the red ruffle around it belonged to my Great Aunt. It still has her thimble, pins and an old pair of dice sitting on it as she left it. Here are my treasures so far:

When I was a child, my step-father’s mother had a rocking chair pin cushion that always intrigued me. I found this one at an estate sale today. It brings back sweet memories of that dear sweet Grandma.

Hand-made Pin Cushions

I love pin cushions and make them when I have time. The last one is a vintage salt cellar only 2” tall x 3” wide with a red velvet pin cushion. Here are some of the ones I have kept.
