I am about to write an essay "In Praise of Antique Bobbin Makers". It was
inspired by this thread (No... you makers are not antiques!) I just thought
that the information on this thread will be really valuable valuable for the
"Springetts" of 100 years time.
There is a wealth of practical art on you pillows that someone will sure
want to study in the future.
I notice one correspondent said that she had the "first" pair of bobbin a
particular maker created.
Merrilyn Finlay (West Australia) has my first pair... they were more like
pokers than bobbins, I tried to get them back off her, but NO she would hold
me to ransom at some future date. :(
