convenient-pin-cushion

I absolutely love this little wrist pincushion, i find that it is one the most useful things that i have ever made! It was one of the easiest and quickest crafts as well. I saved the velvet-covered metal cuff that came inside the presentation box for a wrist watch...you know the thing that is used to display the watch showing how it will look on your arm. I then just sewed a little cushion onto the centre and got busy poking it with pins!!
The cuff has a bit of give in it so it stretches onto the wrist very easily and i frequently forget that i am wearing it...only to be reminded when i get stuck trying to force my arm into a cardigan or something...the untangling process that follows is not much fun!!
