You can get magnet-backed vinyl of the sort used for printing signs that are slapped onto the sides of vans. A printer who does this sort of stuff should be able to supply. I don't think that it will tolerate much abuse from castors or chair legs 'tho (if that is what she is sitting on). You might be better off going to Bisbell Magnets, getting a couple of decent sized neodymium magnets, attaching them to a stick and using them to do a 'sweep' of the floor when the sewing activities are over. Who knows what you might find.

I bfo magnet on a fishing pole sounds like a good idea, but I fear @stevep is right :(
I’m converting a spare room into a ‘craft space’ for the MiL. I think it’s mainly sewing and such and herein lies the issue. The new carpet we’ve recently fitted is going to end up full of pins and needles. I know this because every time she gets her sewing machine out I find pins on the floor afterwards. Is there something I can put on, under near the sewing table to stop this happening? Magnetic cloth? Or something?
