Well this project is a little (heaps) different for me! It's an extremely eclectic mix of unusable bobbins, spools, reels, lace, buttons and ribbon along with Stampin' Up! retired Designer Series papers and a little stamping to boot!
Many of the cotton spools are VERY old, having come from sewing boxes which belonged to both of my Nana's. What a wonderful way of being able to display and remember them, especially at Christmas time!
