Vintage Pin Cushion

I was bargain-hunting at a Chinese goods warehouse, when I found an old-fashioned oriental pin cushion. Reminded me so much of my childhood, when my mother sewed a lot, so I got it for nostalgic reasons.

I have the eight Chinamen pin cushion my grandmother used. I was looking for another for my sister when I came across you blog. They are very cute.

I, as Catherine before me, was looking for a good picture of a Chinamen pincushion as well - might use this photo for reference for a tattoo!
