Pincushion
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
For other uses, see Pincushion (disambiguation).
A pincushion (or less commonly pin cushion) is a small cushion, typically 3-5 cm across, which is used in sewing to store pins or needles with their heads protruding so as to take hold of them easily.
Pincushions are typically filled tightly, so as to hold pins rigidly once placed.
