Question
My mom is 105 now and I have her old pin cushion.  It is 1-7/8" high almost 3" in diameter with 6 thread holders, a red felt pin cushion 1-1/8" D on the top and a round bottom.  They rotate independently.  Really good condition. Photo if you want one.  Is it on any value?  It is for sale.
Thanks for offering to help,
