Hi All,
I have been rootling through some of my favourite bobbins, and I have
several on one of my current pillows made by Pauline Denmark's husband -
they are so lovely, most of the ones I have are spliced with different
colours (and what a job it was to find *just* the right beads to spangle
them!) and are so slender and good to handle - and to look at!
I am also hard-pushed not to spend the enture housekeeping (and more ...) on
Malcolm Fowler's wonderful, slender glass bobbins. He fills them and
decorates them with the most exquisite beads, lace, etc., and even made me
some with my grand children's baby hair in, as well as an extra special,
fatter pair with some baby teeth inside. Not to everyone's taste, those
latter, but I love them! They are made of Pyrex glass, I think, so are
also very hardwearing.
Back to the pillow, to find some more ....
