I personally think that it is quite unlikely you will poke yourself, but if you are very concern, it is not hard to attach a piece of plastic/cardboard on the lower side of the cuff and cover it up with a separate piece of felt - does this make sense? I might draw a diagram when I have time:) Hi Michelle,

Thanks for sharing "felting", new to sewing I had only heard the term. My concern is that I will stab myself in the wrist with my needle, is there a way to put a hard protective lining between my wrist and the pin cushion, or is the felt stiff enough? Thanks, I love your site and now I'm hungry for sushi! This is so cute, I will have to make one. Thanks for sharing “felting”, new to sewing I had only heard the term.
