Still a popular useful pin cushion that you will no doubt find in the homes of most crafters. I currently have one for sale at the Vintage Touch online store at: http://deannamoyers.ecrater.com/p/11522527/vtg-tomato-pin-cushion-s... Please check other pin cushions as well as other sewing notions available at the Vintage Touch store:
