Note from the designer: I borrowed the bottom part of 7 year old Ellen Margaret Jessie Murray's charming sampler to make this pin drum. My friend Faye Riggsbee made it into a pin drum for me and she made a delightful flat berry to go with it as a gift to me. I traced the berry so I could include the template and finishing instructions. This design would work well as a pin cushion too.
