There's anther lot of "lace bobbins" on ebay. More feasible as such that the
previous lot, but they're not for bobbin lacemaking. They could be for another
type of lacemaking, if so, what?
To me they look more like elaborate toggle buttons found on duffle coats
Hi everyone,
A little while ago someone on Arachne asked about Binche bobbins. In sorting
through some of my -extensive- bobbin collection I came accross some packs
of new Binche bobbins. They were bought a while ago for my own use but I use
the slightly heavier Duchesse bobbins. I have poste
In the last few minutes Christine and David Springett have started listing
their bobbins on ebay under Crafts/Lacemaking/Bobbins or search for
Springett.
The first four are there and bidding starts at 99 pence.

I'd say the 56 wooden ones would be one to three GBP each - maximum 100

And 39 of them are described as bone/ivory. I've just got home from
Upchurch lace Day where David Springett was the speaker and he said

Hi All,
There was a report of some of Margaret Wall's bobbins on eBay several days
ago, and there are now some more of Heather Power's painted bobbins - one of
the numbers is 8191313136 - the others are the two just above it. The
bobbins are made by Stuart Johnson and painted by Heather - and I
I believe that in Parham House there is a picture by Joshuah Reynolds of
a Kangaroo.
The only trouble is that no one had seen a live kangaroo.
So it was painted from the skeleton and the skin.
It looks like a big mouse with too big a feet.
Just thought of that from what you said!
