NEEDLE IT
Voodoo Doll Pincushion
Sharpen your wits (and needles)
with this creepy pincushion. BY CASEY DOUGHERTY
Stray pins can be a dangerous matter, especially to those
who share your craft space. While many people have the
luxury of a separate craft room, I like to be out where the
action is. Fortunately, I haven’t yet shared my pin-cidents with oth-
ers, but I can’t deny that there have been some close calls. Tired of
the just-old-fashioned tomato and strawberry, I decided to give a
voodoo doll pincushion a try. No two alike, the voodoo doll uses up
fabric scraps, keeps your pins sharp with steel wool stuffing, and
saves your and your loved ones’ skin.
