My grandmother put a needle and thread in my hands before I turned three. No plastic toys—real tools for real making. That early introduction to craft shaped my understanding of what creative tools should be: functional, beautiful, and made to last.

This pin cushion is the tool I've always wanted on my sewing table. Designed with a weighted ceramic base that stays put when you're in the flow, topped with premium felted wool that holds pins securely without dulling their points.

The limited edition sage green glaze emerged after countless test tiles and formula tweaks. It's a color that shifts subtly depending on the light—earthier at dusk, brighter in morning sun—mirroring the natural cycles that influence all handmade work. Sage traditionally symbolizes wisdom and longevity, a fitting tribute to the generations of makers whose knowledge flows through our hands.

Choose your wool felt insert in charcoal gray, warm tan, or cream to complement your workspace and creative style. Each pin cushion comes equipped with 10 straight pins, ready for your next project or repair.

Small batch. Hand thrown. Exactly what you need.
