Product Information

Full details

The Hobby Gift Scotty Dog Pincushion is designed for sewers, quilters, and needlework enthusiasts who need a convenient and charming way to store pins and needles. Its key benefit is providing a stable, easily accessible spot for your sharp tools, preventing loss and keeping your workspace tidy. A slight caveat is that its novelty design, while appealing, may be less practical for very large projects requiring a high volume of pins compared to larger, more traditional pincushions. This durable 100% cotton pincushion is lightweight, portable, and features a unique Scotty dog design with a tape measure collar, making it an ideal gift for crafters.

Troubleshooting

Pincushion is not standing upright.

Ensure the pincushion is placed on a flat, stable surface. The filling might have settled; gently reshape the base to provide better stability.

Fabric appears dirty or stained.

Gently wipe the affected area with a slightly damp cloth. For stubborn stains, use a mild soap solution on the cloth, then wipe with a clean damp cloth. Always air dry.

Pins are not holding securely.

Check if the fabric is overly saturated with pins. Try to distribute pins evenly. If the fabric feels worn, it may be time to replace the pincushion.
