Now THIS is a strawberry emery pincushion!
Are you familiar with the little strawberry that comes along with the famous tomato pincushion? Do you know the purpose of that strawberry? It's an emery pincushion. Its purpose is to keep your pins and needles sharp. It’s filled with a mineral called "emery". Emery resembles fine metal shavings. It’s used as an abrasive in industrial applications and on things like emery boards.
I searched high and low for a larger emery pincushion with no luck, so I decided to start making my own. I found an industrial supply company that would sell emery to me.
Here’s my jumbo Strawberry Emery Pincushion. It's like the classic, only much bigger!
It’s made from red and green acrylic felt. The small tip of the strawberry is stuffed with a bit of polyester fiber-fill. The rest of the strawberry is full of emery in its own little sack. There are no fillers in the part filled with emery. It’s a full ¼ cup of emery.
Each strawberry measures approximately 2 3/4 inches (7 cm) long and 2 1/4 inches (5.72 cm) across at its widest point.
These are the perfect pincushions...They're cute, they're heavy so they won't slide around your work surface, they hold your pins and needles, and they're sharpened with every jab. What more could you want from a pincushion?
Every strawberry will be slightly different. Yours may not match the ones in the photos *exactly*.
This listing is for one pincushion. If you would like to purchase more than one, just contact me.
The fourth picture shows what emery looks like. If you'd like to purchase just the emery to make your own pincushions, please check my shop to see it listed.

Thanks for looking!
