The magnetic one makes it a snap to clean up all those stray pins, especially ones that may have fallen on the carpet, but I often prick my fingers when I reach over to grab one because the pins are stuck to it every which way. The pin cushion is just the opposite. It's more work to clean up because the pins only stick in one way, but the ball/blunt end is always out so I never get pricked. Also, the magnetic trays don't slip on your wrist (at least not the ones I've seen) like some pin cushions do. I personally don't have a wrist pin cushion, but I can see how it might be handy. The magnetic trays that I've seen don't come with a pin sharpener either. Of course, I'm the dorky beginner that didn't even know the thing dangling off my tomato cushion actually served a purpose til a few weeks ago. Duh! LOL! <br /><br />Still, finger pricks or not, I do tend to prefer my magnetic tray because I can haphazardly flick pins out as they approach my presser foot & my tray will catch them as they slide off my machine's arm. :)Melissanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1401460045100208871.post-16516496475084943842013-10-16T11:06:02.322-07:002013-10-16T11:06:02.322-07:00I love magnetic trays.

It's nice that you can toss pins in its general direction and it'll grab them :)<br /><br /><br />You're lucky, I wish I had a sewing friend nearby. :)Meigannoreply@blogger.com
