I wanted to keep my sheet sets and my sewing pins organized, so I made a drawstring sheet bag and pin cushion out of re-used / re-purposed t-shirts. The pin cushion has a yarn ball in it as filler and makes it so easier to place pins instead of the too stiff standard tomato cushion. You know which one. They were easy to make and I felt good recycling and not having to buy anything new. Click on the photos above to check out the photo slideshow.
