The smaller part(the strawberry) is used to sharpen the needle. This is done by pushing the needle in and out of the strawberry. Good luck;)

The traditional tomato pin cushion is a popular and reliable pin cushion. It is used for storing needles and pins safely and in an organised way. It has a small strawberry attached to it which has emery powder inside.
