@30pics4jackiesdiamond It is and it may also have been left over form my grandmother @mcsiegle Thank you Mary. I do seem to have several around the house, my favorites being magnetic so I only have to get the pins near to it for them to be corraled @joansmor Thank you Joan and no it does not. That would be really handy to have @corinnec They certainly are for me @olivetreeann I recently read it was considered to be a sign of prosperity and to ward off evil spirits to have a tomato on the mantel. In winter months when there were none one was made out of fabric and sawdust which later became used as a place to put pins as well. @randystreat I think so too. It has been in her sewing machine cabinet for years and unused though. Thanks Kathy @ludwigsdiana I think that is precisely what it is Diana @briaan thank you Brian @kjarn glad you like it Kathy @wakelys I think it is a traditional shape @lesip not unusual for lots of women who sew I think
