Something Old


     I was going across things in my sewing room and thought a few of you would find them interesting or maybe bring back memories. The pincushion was given to me the summer of 1979. I gave a girl swimming lessons and this is what they gave me for High School graduation. I also received for graduation my first Gingher Scissors and Pinking Shears.

     The felt needle book with embroidery on the front is about 30 years older than that.  A lady that made me a quilt for graduation gave it to me.  The cover paper you see is from a very old needle holder.  On these opposite side it is imprinted with "non-rust needles".  You can tell they have all been put to good use.
