Grabbit Magnetic Sewing Pincushion with 50 Plastic Head Pins, Black

Love it! Can swipe my sewing table or the floor with it and it grabs every pin in sight. The pins that came with it are longer & nicer than what I used to use...a nice bonus! I recommend this item to everyone who sews and pins fabrics for sewing or pins patterns to fabric to cut fabric.

This is an essential sewing tool for me.

I used the same magnetic pincushion since the 80s, that is until I knocked it off the table one too many times and broke it. I replaced it with two Grabbits, black and teal, so I could have one at my sewing machine and the other by my coverstitch. These are every bit as nice and heavy as my vintage one. Toss the pins to the Grabbit as you sew and they go right in, all lined up the same direction as they should. To prevent knocking them off my tables I bought two textured jar openers (from Amazon) to put underneath to keep them from sliding. Works great!

Love love love this! Holds a ton of pins, has a strong magnet, grabs them easily. I bought this for my 7 year old learning to sew, and it’s perfect. Both my boys just want to lay the pins down when done with them, they don’t want to be bothered sticking them into a pin cushion. This makes it easy for them and means I don’t have to pick up after them or find them all over the table & floors. We even throw it into a sewing box when not sewing and they stay put.

Nice weight. Good size. Works just like it supposed to. All good.

I dont sew a lot, but when I do, I am always losing pins and have this bulky pincushion because its easier to stick. I cant believe I never got one of these! Everyone talks about how great it is for dropping pins and even picking them up off the floor with a wave of the cushion, but what I loved best is how FLAT it is. It FITS in my sewing basket, where my old, much larger pincushion did not, and I was always misplacing it. Thats awesome!!

I sew in several rooms in my house, this is so convenient that I always go get it from the other room. As a new sewer this is my best buy so far.

So much easier to use than a pin cushion! Its heavy enough to sit sturdily on my ironing board. Strong magnet holds the pins but will also grab your scissors if you get too close! I place the cushion close to the sewing machine so while sewing I can pull a pin from the seam, get it close to the cushion and BAM the magnet grabs the pin and I am on to the next one. A sweep of the cushion on the floor also makes quick work of picking up fallen pins. Note, though, the included pins are a good length and sharp but are flimsy and bend easily.
